Before you can deploy vRealize Operations or vRealize Automation, you must deploy vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager.
The process for deploying vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager varies slightly depending on whether you are using application virtual networks (AVNs) or a VLAN-backed distributed port group. See vRealize Suite Products and VMware Cloud Foundation for more information.
Prerequisites
- Download the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager installation package from the VMware Depot to the local bundle repository. See Downloading an Install Bundle.
- Configure a new vRealize VLAN on the switches and verify that the vRealize subnet is routable to the management network. (Only required if you are using a VLAN-backed distributed port group for deploying vRealize Suite components.)
- Allocate an IP address for the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager virtual appliance and prepare forward/reverse DNS records.
