Creating Virtuozzo Infrastructure Platform Cluster
==================================================

The first step to perform, before you can create the cluster, is to configure the internal and public networks required by Virtuozzo Infrastructure Platform. After that, make sure that storage nodes are shown on the **NODES** screen and proceed to creating Virtuozzo Infrastructure Platform cluster.

If you have remote iSCSI devices you wish to connect to cluster nodes, you can configure them prior to cluster creation as described in :ref:`Connecting Remote iSCSI Devices to Storage Cluster Nodes`.
