Cisco Cisco UCS C210 M1 General-Purpose Rack-Mount Server White Paper

Figure 34. Configuring Network Interfaces Statically

Note: Multiple networks are listed if multiple vSwitches are configured on the ESXi host. The VSA creates an interface on all
vSwitches by default. If you do not want the VSA to create an interface on specific vSwitches, clear the box associated with
the virtual machine port group. For each interface, you can choose its type.

10. Enter the VSA license information and click

Next.

Note: During deployment, the VSA attempts to connect to StorMagic’s license server to validate the license. If it needs to use
a proxy server to do this, supply the proxy server details. If the VSA does not have Internet connectivity, license it later using an
offline activation mechanism.

11. Enter the VSA management password, then click

Next. Summary information about the VSA is displayed.

12. Click

Finish to deploy the VSA.

13. You can monitor the deployment process in the VMware Recent Tasks window. Use the

StorMagic deploy OVF task to

view the overall percentage of the deployment completed. When this task finishes, the VSA will be booted and become
operational.

Note: A VSA is deployed from an Open Virtualized Format (OVF) file. An OVF file is a platform-independent, efficient,
extensible, and open packaging and distribution format for virtual machines, making it an excellent format for packaging
StorMagic VSAs for distribution and deployment.

14. After the VSA has been deployed, you can use it to create data stores

Note: The VSA requires at least one network interface to be routable to vCenter; otherwise, the VSA deployment will fail.
