What to do next
After successful DCF installation, Install

Note: If you shutdown or stop IP/ESM server which has Cisco ACI / VCD / Cloudify discovered and restart the server with the same repos / topology using --ignore-restore-errors or --clean-topology then no issues. However if you shutdown ESM server and restart with --norestore option then old monitoring collectors for Cisco ACI / VCD / Cloudify will be running and those need to be stopped manually.
