been provisioned by someone else,
+and during testing, to cut down provisioning time.
+
+Your nodes must meet the following prerequisites:
+
+- A suitable OS must have been installed on all nodes
+- The node must be running sshd (or similar)
+- the brooklyn user must be able to ssh to each node as root or as a user
with passwordless sudo permission. (For more information on SSH keys, see
