Configuring the infrastructure

In this section, we provide guidance on how to provision and allocate

network, security, database, core services such as NTP and DNS, and

perform the essential vCloud Director configuration tasks.

Important

It is outside the scope of this document to provide step-by-step procedures

for the following tasks. Refer to the vendor’s documentation, online help, or

support services offered by your cloud provider to supplement these steps.

Configuring NTP and DNS

Use the following guidance when configuring NTP and DNS:

◆ DNS

• Configure forward name resolution for all management systems.

• Configure reverse name resolution for all IP addresses (vCloud

Director).

◆ NTP

• Configure NTP accessible by both sites.

• NTP needs to be accessed by vCloud Director, vCenter, Oracle DB,

and vShield manager in each cloud.

• All clocks within each cloud environment must be within 2 seconds of

each other.

Configuring the databases

Use the following guidance when configuring the databases:

◆ Configure the vCenter database for two vSphere vCenter servers at

Version 4.0 U1 or higher (if using a Service Provider, only one is

necessary at your private site).

• Microsoft SQL server is recommended over the embedded database.

The Microsoft SQL Server can be installed on the same system as the

vCenter server.

◆ vCloud Director database

1. Install the Oracle database system(s) (the required version can be

found in the VMware vCloud Director documentation).

a) We recommend one server for each vCloud Director site.

b) Create a new, empty, namespace for each database, as per the

vCloud Director documentation.

c) The Oracle system needs to be accessible from the vCloud

Director management interfaces.
