Creating a Virtual Machine

To create a virtual machine, you must create a group (vApp) of virtual machines. You can control the order in which the virtual machines are started, how long they wait to start, and how they are stopped in the group.

To create a group of machines (vApp), click New vApp:

The vApp creation window will then open. Enter a name and click ADD VIRTUAL MACHINE:

If you want to install the virtual machine from the template, please use this instruction.

To install the virtual machine from the ISO image, select Type: "New":

You will see a virtual machine creation window with the following options Operating System Type, CD-DVD-Rom Connection Image (Boot Image) and Recommended Configuration - Small, Medium, Large. After you have specified all the settings, click OK.

 

Note: You can manually set CPU, RAM and other values in the configuration using CUSTOMIZE.

If you need to create more than one machine, you can repeat the procedure in the same way by clicking 'ADD VIRTUAL MACHINE'.

Set up the network.

The Networking tab allows you to connect network adapters to existing networks in your vApp (see Network Setup).

Set up a virtual machine.

Go to the Virtual Machines menu, select the required virtual machine and choose Power On from the action menu. Once powered on, select the desired console type from the same action menu - Launch Web Console, Launch VM Remote Console.

 

Continue the installation according to the documentation of the selected operating system.
