+Using the default configuration, this installation method has a number of limitations:
+
+* all services run on the same machine, and they will compete for resources.
+* it uses the local machine disk for Keep storage (under the @/tmp@ directory).
+* it installs the @crunch-dispatch-local@ dispatcher, which can run just one concurrent CWL job. This job will be executed on the machine that runs all the Arvados services. Most workflows require at least two concurrent CWL jobs, one for the workflow runner, and one for the payload.
+
+It is possible to start with the single host installation method and modify the Arvados configuration file later to address these limitations. E.g. switch to a "different storage volume setup":{{site.baseurl}}/install/configure-s3-object-storage.html for Keep, and switch to "the cloud dispatcher":{{site.baseurl}}/install/crunch2-cloud/install-dispatch-cloud.html to provision compute resources dynamically.

+h2(#prerequisites). Prerequisites and planning
+
+Arvados requires SSL for (almost) all network traffic. This installation method supports the following options for the required SSL certificate(s): @self-signed@ and @bring your own certificates@.
+
+Prerequisites
+
+* git
+* a dedicated (virtual) machine for your Arvados server with at least 2 cores and 8 GiB of RAM, running a "supported Arvados distribution":{{site.baseurl}}/install/install-manual-prerequisites.html#supportedlinux
+* ports 9443-9445, 11002, 14202, 18002, 35101 need to be reachable from your client (configurable, see below)
+* at least one DNS hostname that resolves to the IP address of your Arvados server
+* one or more SSL certificates matching the hostname(s) in use (only when using @bring your own certificates@)
+
+h2(#single_host). Single host install using the provision.sh script
+
+{% include 'branchname' %}
+
+This procedure will install all the main Arvados components to get you up and running in a single host. The whole installation procedure takes somewhere between 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the host resources and its network bandwidth. As a reference, on a virtual machine with 1 core and 1 GB RAM, it takes ~25 minutes to do the initial install.
+
+This is a package-based installation method, however the installation script is currently distributed in source form via @git@:
