Auto Deploy and the vCenter software reside on the same server, so the same network is used for deployment and
cluster management. In IO, a network must be configured with vCenter as a deployment server. To do this:
Launch SIM in a browser window.
Open the Matrix OE IO console by clicking Tools -> Infrastructure Orchestration.
Open the Networks tab.
a. Select the appropriate network from the table (VMware_Management in this configuration).

o Deployment Server to the IP address of vCenter with Auto Deploy
o Boot Network to Yes
