# Installation Instructions

How to install CatalyX Blockchain Manager 2.0 for the Canton Network.

One Helm chart installs the operator, the API, and the ui into your cluster. You do this once.

Each validator is a `Validator` custom resource that you apply to the cluster. The operator does the rest. This is a separate, ongoing task once the platform is installed — see [Create a Validator](/catalyx-blockchain-manager/canton-network/version-2.0/validator-management/create-a-validator.md) in [Validator Management](/catalyx-blockchain-manager/canton-network/version-2.0/validator-management.md).

{% hint style="warning" %}
CAT-BM 2.0 is not an in-place upgrade from 1.10 or 1.11. Install it fresh. Contact IntellectEU support before planning a migration from a 1.x deployment.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.catalyx.solutions/catalyx-blockchain-manager/canton-network/version-2.0/installation-instructions-canton.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
