Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes a method for provisioning private-cloud server nodes by receiving a request to provision a specified number of server nodes for a private cloud, wherein the request is associated with a user, identifying a plurality of server nodes including (a) the specified number of hypervisor server nodes from a first pool that includes prepared hypervisor server nodes, each of which includes a previously-installed hypervisor, and (b) a management server node from a second pool that includes prepared management server nodes, each of which includes a previously-installed hypervisor and one or more previously-installed management components, configuring the identified server nodes to use a network associated with the user, creating a private cloud that includes the identified server nodes, and providing, to the user, permission to access the identified server nodes.
