 - [Install the Azure Stack HCI operating system, version 23H2](./deployment-install-os.md) on each machine.
 
 - Register your subscription with the required resource providers (RPs). You can use either the [Azure portal](/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/resource-providers-and-types#register-resource-provider-1) or the [Azure PowerShell](/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/resource-providers-and-types#azure-powershell) to register. You need to be an owner or contributor on your subscription to register the following resource RPs:
-
     - *Microsoft.HybridCompute*
     - *Microsoft.GuestConfiguration*
     - *Microsoft.HybridConnectivity*
     - *Microsoft.AzureStackHCI*

     > The assumption is that the person registering the Azure subscription with the resource providers is a different person than the one who is registering the Azure Local machines with Arc.
