Deploying Utility Services and virtual machines when Out of Band Management is enabled

Before you begin

Install the Solution Deployment Manager client on your computer.

Procedure

  1. Connect the computer to the Out of Band Management network with access to the Appliance Virtualization Platform Management Network IP address that you configured in the kick start generator file.
  2. Using the Solution Deployment Manager client, create a location.
  3. In the location that you created, create a host of Appliance Virtualization Platform by using the Management Network IP address of Appliance Virtualization Platform.
  4. Ensure that Utility Services OVA is saved in the sub-folder in the Default_Artifacts directory during the Solution Deployment Manager client installation.

    You can save OVA files of all virtual machines that you want to deploy.

  5. Create a new virtual machine in the host that you created in Step 3.
  6. To set the OVA software library, select the complete path to the Default_Artifacts directory.

    In the Configuration Parameters section, the page displays parameters that are specific to Utility Services.

  7. Fill in the Utility Services parameters.

    Provide the IP address that you want to allocate to Communication Manager.

    If Out of Band Management is enabled, provide information in the Out of Band Management-related fields. If Out of Band Management is disabled, leave the fields blank.

  8. Deploy Utility Services, and wait for the virtual machine to deploy successfully.
  9. Install the Utility Services 7.0.1 feature pack.
  10. Deploy all other virtual machines in the solution one after the other.
  11. Install the feature pack for Avaya Aura® applications.
  12. Validate the system.
