The Cloud Manager Server runs as a set of applications within a GlassFish application server domain. You must run the Cloud Manager configuration utility to create and configure the domain. The utility also configures access to the PostgreSQL database used by the Cloud Manager Server.
Make sure you know the information that you will be prompted for during configuration:
