If you have already created an Application Package in another App Volumes Manager deployment, you can import the VMDK files of that Application Package to the current App Volumes Manager deployment. You can use the Import functionality to reuse pre-configured third-party Application Packages.

After importing the Application Package to the current App Volumes Manager deployment, you can perform the assign and attach activities.

Prerequisites

Using the vCenter Server datastore browser, select a datastore, create a folder, and upload the Application Package to this folder.

Procedure

  1. From the App Volumes Manager console, navigate to INVENTORY > Applications.
  2. Click Import.
  3. Select the datastore where you have uploaded the Application Package and enter the path of the Application Package.
  4. Click Import.

Results

The current App Volumes Manager deployment lists the imported Application Package.
