Per the instructions in the document, is the controller node also acting as the compute node. By that I mean when a VM is created, it created on the controller node. Is that right? And then there are steps to create additional (sole) compute nodes. Is that a correct view of looking at the setup described in the document.</div><div><br></div><div>Server 1 : Controller node / Compute node</div><div>Server 2: Compute node</div><div><br></div><div>If so, is that the usual deployment scenario?</div><div><br></div><div>Any thoughts would be highly appreciated.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Ahmed.</div><div> </div></body></html>
