Deployment Guide

NOTE: Even when OMNI is deployed in-band, it is recommended to set up connectivity with the out-of-band

Management network of the switches in the network fabric to separate management traffic with user data traffic, and

also to enable faster image downloads to the switches.

• Create virtual machine

• Log into VM console

Create virtual machine

This information describes how to import the SmartFabric OVA file into the content library, then create a virtual machine (VM).

Download and install OVA

You can add items to a content library by importing files from your local system. You can import an OVA package to use as a template for

deploying virtual machines.

1. Download the OVA from the VMware Solution Exchange or Dell EMC Networking Support, then store the OVA image locally.

2. Select Hosts and Domains, select the domain that the plug-in needs to manage, then select Action > Deploy OVF Template.

3. Select Local file, click Choose Files and select OMNI.ova from a local source, then click Next.
