VMware vCloud Director 5.1 Evaluation Guide
A window will be displayed that shows the progress of the appliance deployment. Wait until this is complete
before continuing.
Installing the vCloud Director Appliance
In this guide, we use the vCloud Director Appliance. As with the vCenter Server Appliance, using the
vCloud Director Appliance reduces the complexity that would be involved with a production deployment.
The vCloud Director Appliance is not supported for production environments. For the PoC environments
that the vCloud Director Appliance is targeted at, it’s expected to be used on a limited infrastructure scale.
As a result, the vCloud Director Appliance has been verified in single-cell deployments with two attached
vCenter Servers and 100 virtual machines. This will be more than adequate for the purposes of this guide.
As with the vCenter Server Appliance, deploying the vCloud Director Appliance starts with selecting the Deploy
OVF Template… from the vSphere Client connected to the management vCenter Server.
