Untar the director and Observer files
tar -xvf director.tar.gz
tar -xvf observer.tar.gz
You will need to modify the network configuration of both the observer and the director to connect the appropriate networks. In the example below, we connect to the VM to the default network. You can check the avaiable networks domains by issuing the command 'virsh net-list' as shown below
$virsh net-list
Name State Autostart Persistent
----------------------------------------------------------
default active yes yes
Modify the director and observer xml to point to appropriate network domain in the interface settings
$ vi komprise-centos-20170526.xml
<interface type='network'>
<source network='default'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
</interface>
Modify the director and observer xml to point to the path to disk
$ cd director
$ ls -al
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7314931712 Jun 26 15:38 komprise-centos-2.4-on-premise-sda
-rw-r--r-- 1 dasher dasher 1324 Jun 26 15:36 komprise-centos-2.4-on-premise.xml
<devices>
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/>
<source file='/home/dasher/director/komprise-centos-2.4-on-premise-sda'/>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>
Copy the extracted folder for the observers to create clones of the base image
$ cp -r observer/ observer-1
$ cp -r observer/ observer-2
$ cp -r observer/ observer-3
modify the name of the observer to reflect the clone number
<domain type='kvm'>

Import the director and observer virtual machines into libvirt my issuing the comand virsh open <Path-to-xml-file.xml>
$ virsh open komprise-centos-2.4-on-premise.xml
