Screenshot shows how i've defined 2 Public Networks for DEV and MGMT. This is only required of your are using Isolated Mode in your Network Offering. To make an analogy of what Isolated mode means, look at how AWS does IaaS. They offer an Internal IP address as well as External IP address. If If you are planning to run your environment in traditional manner where NATing is handled by Firewalls, your don't need to define Public Network for your guest VMs. A small public network IP range is required only for Management VMs.

Define you POD on the page below as well as IP space for CS Management  Network Network
 

I've purposely left VLAN Range blank for both Physical Networks on Guest Traffic and will do this through API/CLI commands later. This function has not worked as expected through UI interface and Network has not been created.
 
On the Storage Traffic page, define the IP range for your storage network. For simplicity, i did not use a VLAN tagged network.
 
The screenshot below defined the VmWare cluster information, you will need a user that is able to login to a virtual center with administrative privileges privileges.
 
Primary storage is where your guest VMs are going to live.In this example its NFS based, make sure you have proper network access to CS and your hypervisors.
Secondary storage is where your templates are going to reside, make sure it has proper network access to CS and your hypervisors.
 
Last but not least - if you've done everything properly, you should see a Ready Page to Launch a Zone.
 
I'd strongly recommend to open Virtual Center and look for all the progress CS makes when it goes through the setup process. At the same time, i would launch
 

When you get to enable the Zone page

Launch an ssh session to cloudstack server and tail the the /var/log/cloud/management/management-server.log.
Note that you will be getting occasional warning and errors - as it tries to deploy multiple components - this is normal. What is not normal is when you see the same error repeating over and over for extended period of time - if thats the case, proceed to troubleshooting section.

Here is an example of what you may see...

The initial setup process may take upto 10 minutes depending on your environment. I'd recommend to wait it out and proceed only once the initial setup is successful.
