3 Software Installation Procedure

The host and virtual networks configuration should be done before running the procedures in this document. It is assumed that at this point the user has access to the following:
  • Consoles of all guests and hosts at all sites
  • ssh access to the guests at all sites
  • GUI access to hosts at all sites
  • A configuration station with a web browser, ssh client, and scp client
  • VM Manager Privileges to add OVAs to catalog (VMware only)
  • KVM/OpenStack admin and tenant privileges
  • OVM-S/OVM-M credentials and privileges, OVM-M CLI tool must be installed and accessible

SUDO

Many commands when run as admusr (non-root user) requires the use of sudo.

VIP/TSA (OpenStack Only)

OpenStack release Kilo or later is required to configure VIP and target set addresses. Kilo release 2015.1.2 or later is preferred.

IPV6

IPv6 configuration of XMI and IMI networks is introduced in DSR. Standard IPv6 formats for IPv6 and prefix can be used in all IP configuration screens, which enables the DSR to run in an IPv6 only environment. When using IPv6 for XMI and management, place the IPv6 address in brackets.

For example: https://[<IPv6 address>]

If a dual-stack (IPv4 and IPv6) network is required, configure the topology with IPv4 first, and then migrate to IPv6. Refer to DSR IPv6 Migration Guide for instructions on this migration.
