Setting Up DVS Simplified 1020
The following steps must be completed to set up the DVS Simplified 1020 before virtual desktops can be deployed:
1. Connecting And Configuring Physical Connections.
2. Configuring The Hypervisor
3. Configuring The vdiManager.
4. Creating A Windows Reference VM.
5. Generating a Base Desktop Image.
Connecting And Configuring Physical Connections
You can use the following types of network ports to configure your physical connections:
• Gb1 Network Connection—Used to access the vdiManager and virtual desktops.
NOTE: Gb1 network must reach Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server as it dynamically
assigns IP addresses to vdiManager and virtual desktops. This IP address is used to access the
vdiManager after the appliance boots.
• Gb3 Network Connection—Used to manage and access the hypervisor and the host server.
• Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC)—Used for hardware management.
