11.0 HP StoreVirtual Storage VSA Installation and Configuration Guide (TA688-96141, September 2013)

Installing the StoreVirtual VSA
To install the laptop demo of the StoreVirtual VSA, you will:
• Unzip to the prepared directory and start the virtual machine.
• Direct the Ethernet port to NAT (default), Host-only, or bridged.
• Set the IP address and host name of the StoreVirtual VSA.
You only need to configure each virtual machine once.
1. Copy or download the StoreVirtual VSA .zip file.
2. Copy or unzip the StoreVirtual VSA files to the virtual machine directory.
NOTE: Copy the files to multiple directories for multiple VSAs.
Configuring the StoreVirtual VSA with VMware Player or VMware Workstation
1. Open the VMware console.
2. Click File→Open to open the VSA.vmx file.
3. Navigate to the location of the unzipped StoreVirtual VSA files.
4. Select the VSA.vmx file and click Open.
5. Edit the StoreVirtual VSA settings as required by the VMware console you are using. Select
the appropriate network mode:
• Bridged
• NAT
• Host-only
NOTE: All StoreVirtual VSAs on the same platform should use the same networking mode.
When running multiple StoreVirtual VSAs on a single host, use NAT or Host-only networking
mode, and use DHCP to assign IP addresses to the StoreVirtual VSAs.
6. Power on the StoreVirtual VSA.
7. Use the Configuration Interface to set the IP address and host name as described in “Powering
on the VSA for vSphere and setting the IP address and host name” (page 15):
