Install all required {ref}`snaps <reference-requirements-software-snaps>` on each machine intended as a MicroCloud cluster member. Enter the following commands on all machines to install the most recent {ref}`LTS release <ref-releases-microcloud-lts>` of MicroCloud and the {ref}`compatible releases <ref-releases-matrix>` of LXD, MicroCeph, and MicroOVN:

```{admonition} Snap channels
:class: note
The snap channels shown below install the current {ref}`feature release <ref-releases-microcloud-feature>` of MicroCloud, along with the most recent compatible releases for its components. To install the {ref}`current LTS release <ref-releases-microcloud-lts>` of MicroCloud instead, refer to the [install guide for that version](https://canonical.com/microcloud/docs/default/how-to/install/).
```

```bash
sudo snap install lxd --channel=6/stable --cohort="+"
sudo snap install microceph --channel=squid/stable --cohort="+"
sudo snap install microovn --channel=24.03/stable --cohort="+"
sudo snap install microceph --channel=tentacle/stable --cohort="+"
sudo snap install microovn --channel=26.03/stable --cohort="+"

@roosterfish -- Since we don't have a feature release for 4, yet, I updated this to use the LTS release. This also aligns with the LXD install guide, which provides the default snap install command (sudo snap install lxd) and uses the most recent LTS as the example for changing the channel. In other words, the user has to make a conscious decision to write out the command with a feature release channel to actually get a feature release. We can revisit once we have a first feature release, but it might be prudent to follow the LXD approach and only provide example commands that install an LTS.
