HP VSD Installation Using QCow2 Image
The following instructions are for a High Availability installation. For a standalone installation,
use the same instructions to install one HP VSD on a single node.
1.
Set Up Appliance VMs
2. Connect to Appliance VMs
3. Configure Networking
4. Configure DNS Server
5. Configure NTP Server
6.
Install HP VSD using qcow2
Set Up Appliance VMs
1. Unzip all the HP VSD tar files to a temporary location.
2. If you do not already have virt-install on your hypervisor(s), run this command to put it in:
yum install virt-install
3. Copy the HP VSD qcow2 image to the KVM hypervisor image location <TTY>/var/lib/
libvirt/images/ on each hypervisor.
4. Create appliance VMs.
In the example below, a VM is created for each of four HP VSD nodes. If you are doing a
standalone installation, create only
myh1.
Note: “listen=0.0.0.0” results in KVM responding to VNC connection requests on all IP
interfaces. Depending on your network configuration, this may be a security issue.
