Deployment Wizard - Step 1: Select Servers

This page covers server deployment. If you want to deploy hypervisor to an Internal Dual SD Module, this page displays whether that option is available or unavailable. For more information about Internal Dual SD Modules see, Running The Deployment Wizard. If the server you want to deploy does not display in the list for step 2, you can manually add a server to have it display in the list for this step, see Adding A Server Manually.

To select servers:

1.In the Dell Management Center, select Deployment → Deployment Wizard.

2.In the Select Servers window, to assign non-deployed servers to this deployment job, use the check boxes to select Servers.

3.Click Next.

To continue with the task to step two, click Deployment Wizard Step 2.

Deployment Wizard Step 2: Deployment Templates

Deployments to a hardware profile differ from hypervisor deployments. If you are deploying to a hardware profile, click

Deployment Wizard Step 6.

NOTE: A successful deployment requires an ESX ISO that has the correct drivers. Deployment on newer Dell systems may require using Dell custom ISO images that contain all the required Dell drivers. ESX 4.1 may not work on newer Dell systems and may not have a custom ISO available from Dell.

1.Deployment Template selects/creates a deployment template in one of several ways:

•Click Create New to define a new template.

2.Select one of the following:

•If you are deploying to a hardware profile, click Next, which jumps you to Deployment Wizard Step 6.

•If you are deploying to a hypervisor profile, click Next, which takes you to Deployment Wizard Step 3.

Deployment Wizard Step 3: Global Settings

You can deploy hypervisor to either a hard drive or an Internal Dual SD Module. If an Internal Dual SD Module is available on at least one of the servers selected, the Internal Dual SD Module option is enabled by default. If not, both the Hard Disk and Internal Dual SD Module options are not selected.

To deploy the hypervisor, perform the following steps:

1.In the Global Settings page, select one of the following options:
