# Step 2. Await initial environment deployment


Use the following procedure to ensure the Landing Zone Accelerator on AWS deploys a minimum configuration to your environment.

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and navigate to the **AWS CodePipeline** console. The `AWSAccelerator-Installer` pipeline should show a status of either `In Progress` or `Complete`. If `In Progress`, wait for the pipeline to complete.

1. When the `AWSAccelerator-Installer` pipeline has completed, a new `AWSAccelerator-Pipeline` pipeline is created that’s now `In Progress`. Refresh the AWS CodePipeline console if the new pipeline isn’t visible.

1. The `AWSAccelerator-Pipeline` pipeline takes approximately 45 minutes to complete. This initial deployment prepares your environment for Landing Zone Accelerator on AWS and deploy a minimal configuration. Resources deployed include AWS CloudFormation custom resources, CloudWatch Logs log groups for the custom resources, AWS KMS keys for encryption at rest, and Amazon S3 buckets for AWS service logging.

1. After completion of the preceding steps, your environment is ready to customize.
