SAP S/4 HANA 1610 FPS01, Fully Activated Appliance - Provisioning fails

I have tried unsucessfully 8 times now to provision a SAP S/4 HANA 1610 FPS01, Fully Activated Appliance.

6 times i have had an issue with the Software Activation, on the 2 times the software activated i was unable to connect to the host IP.

Is anyone else facing similar issues - other than terminating and trying again, what is recommended.
