      • Blue: The task is still running; in this case, wait for it to complete.
      • Yellow or red: The task execution failed due to errors; in this case, you can find out more about the errors by examining the deployment log that can be downloaded by clicking on the icon.
    3. Point your browser to http://<your_BMC_Capacity_Optimization_server>:<port>/console and sign in to the console using your credentials.
    4. Navigate to Views > All Views > Cloud, and if you can see the OpenStack View under it, it means that the installation completed successfully.
