Installation docs

Install Cerberus as a self-hosted deployment with local license verification.

Nyalma helps you obtain the bundle, release notes, and license material. Your running Cerberus deployment should still operate as a self-hosted system that does not depend on the portal for day-to-day validation.

1. Keep the deployment shape simple

Cerberus runs in your environment and does not need runtime portal connectivity.
Buy or retrieve the license through Nyalma, then download the license file yourself.
Import the signed license material into your Cerberus instance for local verification.

2. Verify what you downloaded

Create a Free or customer portal account, then download the installer bundle and its matching checksum from the portal.
Read the release notes before rollout so version-specific changes are visible to operators.
Record the version and checksum you approved in your own change process.

3. Keep first-run expectations clear

Nyalma-hosted steps are limited to public docs, downloads, account access, and license retrieval.
Local configuration, rollout approval, backups, and recovery plans remain your responsibility.
Use staging or another controlled environment before production where feasible.

4. Know when to leave the docs

Use the portal for license retrieval, release access, and customer support threads.
Use the public support path for alpha questions, procurement review, or rollout planning.
Keep change approval for firewalls, identity systems, and network integrations with your own team.
