Deploying Foglight virtual templates

 
* 
NOTE: To deploy the Foglight-VirtualSniffer-x.x.x template, see Deploying the Foglight virtual Sniffer template.
You can use this procedure to deploy any of the following templates:
•
Foglight-VirtualAPM-x.x.x
•
Foglight-VirtualServer-x.x.x
•
Foglight-VirtualArchiver-x.x.x
A wizard guides you through the deployment process.
For information about where to install the templates, see one of the following scenarios:
•
Monitoring multiple ESXi hosts
•
Monitoring a single ESXi host
To deploy the template:
1
In vSphere® Client, click File > Deploy OVF Template.
The Deploy OVF Template wizard opens. Each of the following steps corresponds to a page in the wizard. Click Next or Back to navigate between pages.
2
On the Source page, navigate to and select the template file you want to deploy.
The example images show the Foglight-VirtualAPM-x.x.x.ovf template.
3
On the OVF Template Details page, review the template details.
4
On the End User License Agreement page, review and accept the license terms to continue.
5
On the Name and Location page, accept the default name (recommended for technical support purposes) or type your own.
6
On the Disk Format page, if you have more than one datastore, select the datastore you want to use. For example, you may want to select the datasource with the highest amount of free space. Accept the default selection of Thick Provisioning, which reserves the required hard disk space immediately (as opposed to Thin Provisioning, which allocates disk space on demand).
7
On the Network Mapping page, map Network 1 to the VM Network port group.
If Network 2 is displayed, map it to the Capture Network port group.
 
* 
NOTE: Network 2 is not displayed when deploying the Foglight Virtual Server Appliance, because this appliance does not contain an Archiver or a Sniffer.
8
On the Ready to Complete page, review the settings. To make changes, click Back.
9
When you are done, click Finish.
vSphere deploys the template.
10
If you know that you want to increase the size of one or more of the partitions used to run the Management Server or an Archiver, you can change the size now. Alternatively, you can wait to see if the partition fills during regular usage. For more information, see Expanding full partitions on virtual appliances.
The virtual appliance is now ready to power on, but do not do so until you deploy all desired templates and connect the virtual appliances.

Deploying the Foglight virtual Sniffer template

A wizard guides you through the deployment process. When you map the networks, ensure you map Network 1 and Network 2 to the same port groups you mapped when deploying the template containing an Archiver, that is VM Network and Capture Network respectively. For more information, see Deploying Foglight virtual templates.
For information about where to install the Virtual Sniffer, see one of the following scenarios:
•
Monitoring multiple ESXi hosts
•
Monitoring a single ESXi host
To deploy the Virtual Sniffer template:
1
In vSphere® Client, click File > Deploy OVF Template.
The Deploy OVF Template wizard opens. Each of the following steps corresponds to a page in the wizard. Click Next or Back to navigate between pages.
2
On the Source page, navigate to and select the Foglight Virtual Sniffer OVF template file.
3
On the OVF Template Details page, review the template details.
4
On the End User License Agreement page, review and accept the terms to continue.
5
On the Name and Location page, accept the default name (recommended for technical support purposes) or type your own.
6
On the Disk Format page, if you have more than one datastore, select the datastore you want to use. For example, you may want to select the datasource with the highest amount of free space. Accept the default selection of Thick Provisioning, which reserves the required hard disk space immediately (as opposed to Thin Provisioning, which allocates disk space on demand).
7
On the Network Mapping page, create the following mappings:
•
Network 1 = VM Network (same as the deployed Management Server and Archiver)
•
Network 2 = Capture Network (same as the deployed Archiver)
•
Network 3 = Monitoring Network
•
Network 4 = Optional—Monitoring Network B
 
* 
IMPORTANT: If you do not map Network 4 to a monitoring switch, when you finish the wizard, you must disconnect Network 4 (as described in Step 10) to avoid picking up stray data.
8
On the Ready to Complete page, review the settings. To make changes, click Back.
9
When you are done, click Finish.
vSphere deploys the Foglight Virtual Sniffer template. You can verify that the deployment ended successfully by checking the message in the Recent Tasks pane.
10
Important—If you did not change the default mapping for Network 4, disconnect it now.
a
In the navigation pane, right-click the Sniffer VM and select Edit Settings.
b
Select Network Adapter 4.
c
In the Device Status area, clear the Connect at power on check box.
d
Click OK.
Network 4 is disconnected. The virtual appliance is now ready to power on, but do not do so until you deploy all desired templates and connect the virtual appliances.

Connecting virtual appliances on different servers

When you deploy virtual appliances to different hosts, you need to make some external connections between the NICs associated with the port groups.
•
Capture Network
•
Multiple hosts — Connect the Capture Network NICs on the hosts containing a Sniffer or an Archiver to a private network switch.
•
Two hosts — Connect the hosts’ Capture Network NICs with a network cable.
•
One host — No external connections required.
•
Monitoring Network
•
Centralized Sniffer (Network tap) — Connect the Monitoring Network A and Monitoring Network B NICs to the monitoring ports on the network tap. For instructions, see Connecting Sniffers to network taps.
•
Local Sniffers — No external connections required.
•
VM Network
•
Monitored hosts — All monitored hosts should already have their VM Network NIC connected to the public network switch that connects to the intranet.
•
Foglight APM appliance hosts — If you have not already done so, connect the VM Network NIC on hosts dedicated to running Foglight APM appliances to the same public network switch as the monitored hosts.

Powering on virtual appliances

After you deploy all the virtual appliance templates required for your installation, power on each appliance and set up the appliance. When you power on the appliance, the partition size is set automatically to the same size as the virtual disk.
 
* 
CAUTION: The first time you power on an appliance, it performs some initialization tasks. This may take a few minutes. Do not interrupt the initialization process. If you do, you may need to remove the VM and redeploy the template.
If you know from past experience that you need a larger virtual disk and partition size than the template provides, change the virtual disk size before powering on the appliance for the first time. The partition size is set automatically to the new disk size. If a partition fills during use, which may happen with the Foglight server, you can change the virtual disk size at that time, and then set the partition size manually through the appliance’s Console Program. For more information, see Expanding full partitions on virtual appliances.
To power on an appliance:
1
With the appliance selected in the Inventory list, click Power On.
A message in the Recent Tasks pane confirms the virtual machine has started. vSphere® installs software required by the appliance.
2
From the toolbar, click Open Console.
vSphere opens a console window. Wait for the installation to end and a login prompt to appear.
3
To log in and set up the appliance, go to Setting up appliances.
4
When you finish setting up this appliance, power on and set up any other appliances.
