Good morning, good afternoon and good evening. My name is Dustin, I'm a Principal Engineer SST
in the systems management space. Today I will be showing you how to deploy OpenManage Enterprise
on Hyper-V. First you will need a Hyper-V host with at least 16 gigabytes of available memory,
20 gigabytes of available hard drive space, the OME appliance downloaded,
and a little bit of time. So first thing we're going to do is download OpenManage Enterprise.
If we go to support.dell.com and put in our service tag and then we use the category
to drill down to systems management, we can search and find our Dell OpenManage Enterprise,
so if we look at the full driver details here we'll see that there's a couple versions.
We have a vhd, kvm and ovf. ovf is vmware, kvm is linux, and vhd is Hyper-V,
so we'll want to download this file. I've already downloaded it to make it a little quicker
and I've placed it on my desktop. Once downloaded you will want to extract it
and once extracted you'll want to drill down to the actual files.
This is the actual vhd, the virtual hard disk that, the appliance will run off of, so we want
to move this where we want it to live. So i'm going to put mine where I put all my virtual hard
drives, I made a folder just for it and I copied it here, This is a fresh copy to this location,
so now i'm going to open Hyper-V Manager.
Now that that is open, I can go ahead and create our new virtual machine, so we will start that
just by right-clicking the name new, and virtual machine,
and that will bring up the new virtual machine wizard, From here we'll specify the name,
and we are going to leave the virtual machine and the location that's in, this is just the
configuration files. We're going to do generation one, generation two is not supported at this time.
For our memory we're going to do 16 gigabytes,
more or less. We're going to configure networking, we have to have this configured,
if we went ahead without configuring it and tried to add an external adapter later we would need to
redeploy the appliance, so make sure this is added during the first configuration. So now
we want to use an existing hard disk and now we're going to browse to that hard disk we had earlier,
click next and at this point it is going to build the virtual machine for us.
So now that's built i can go here, and I want to go to settings, and i like to at least give it one
more processor, it just runs better. You can find all of the necessary resources in the user guide,
that's where you'll find the 16 gigabytes, 20 gigabytes, and those that may change
based on what version of OpenManage Enterprise you're on so i suggest going to that first.
And now we can go ahead and right click and start our VM, and we can double click to
see the console of it so we can kind of watch it start up.
You can either wait for this to auto click or you can click the first one.
After about five to ten minutes of different screens coming up showing you text, basically this
the appliance restarting a few times. You'll get to the EULA, you'll want to accept this EULA by
pressing tab twice and enter to accept.
Go ahead and pick your language, and this is where you're going to set your password.
This is very important to remember, if you do not remember this password you will need to redeploy.
Now that my password has changed the next thing you'll need to do is give it a network,
so we're going to set networking parameters. I already have an IP picked out that is free
and so here you're going to tab to the actual box that's purple and you'll use your arrows,
right arrow key to go all the way to the end and delete what's there
then input your IP address, gateway,
subnet mask and DNS.
You can choose to register with DNS or not this is a lab so i will not.
Now the configuration is happening on the back end and at this point
you should be able to use a browser to get to the IP you just specified,
and there it is. We do want to make sure we're on https because that is important.
There will be a self-signed certificate that you'll have to navigate through,
and the first time load is always the longest.
Okay, so now that's loaded, first time load is finished, we do want to log in.
The username will be admin and the password you set earlier,
and this will get to the very first page. In the very first page you're going to have
initial settings which is going to go through time and proxy configuration and then you have
the discover devices both of these will be covered in a future video. So that's all
we have now for deploying OpenManage Enterprise on Hyper-V. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
