+## Fixing issues
+
+### Machine creation
+
+One of the big steps is creation of attacker and target machines. If this fails, you can do the step manually and check why it fails.
+
+```
+cd systems
+vagrant up attacker
+vagrant up target3
+vagrant ssh attacker
+# do someting
+exit
+vagrant ssh target
+# do something
+exit
+vagrant destroy target3
+vagrant destroy attacker
+```
+
+### Caldera issues
+
+The caldera server is running on the attacker. It will be contacted by the implants installed on the client and remote controlled by PurpleDome using a REST Api. This can be tested using curl:
+
+```
+curl -H 'KEY: ADMIN123' http://attacker:8888/api/rest -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"index":"adversaries"}'
+```
+
+If there are errors, connect to the attacker using ssh and monitor the server while contacting it. Maybe kill it first.
+
+```
+cd caldera
+python3 server.py --insecure
+```
+
