The profile is used to define an App VM group, which supports one or two VMs (one on each compute node).
The total number of App VM groups you can create is only limited by the amount of system resources that are available.
For each App VM, you need 1 IP address. When the system was installed, a pool of IP addresses was defined in the system. To see the amount of IP addresses in the pool, in the MCMU BUI, go to System Settings → User Input Summary, and view the IP Address Pool Size.
The Application Virtual Machine Group Profiles Summary page is displayed.
The Application Virtual Machine Group Description page is displayed.
For details about the required information, use the optional worksheet (App VM Planning Worksheets (Optional)), or see App VM Group Parameters.
This example shows the page that is displayed when a pair of VMs are selected in Step 4. If Single is selected, only one VM is displayed.
If you plan to cluster the App VMs for high availability, complete the Define Cluster section and click Next (for details, see Define Cluster). Otherwise, click Next.
