Learn More About Creating Hypervisor Profiles

The Hypervisor Profile contains key elements needed to automatically install ESX/ESXi virtualization software:
  • The scriptable Reference ISO software media location
  • vCenter instance (and credentials) that will manage the deployed hosts, plus OS-level profile
  • Destination cluster where the plug-in deploys (organizationally) the servers in the vCenter
Note: You must use proper convention for the Reference ISO filename (format - xxxx.xxxxx:/yy.iso). The file extension, colon, forward slash, and three alphanumberic characters are manditory.

Prerequisite: You must use a Staging Folder (NFS share folder) with Full Control or Change permissions during the installation.
