About HCX Manager OVAs

You use separate OVA files to deploy HCX Connector and HCX Cloud site managers.

To access HCX Services, you must install the HCX Connector OVA at the source site for mobility operations and the HCX Cloud Manager OVA at the destination site. If operations are between two cloud sites, you install the HCX Cloud Manager OVA at both sites.

For private cloud deployments, you download the OVAs from the Broadcom support site. From the downloads site, you select the latest version of the HCX Connector and HCX Cloud Manager OVAs.

Note: For VMware Cloud on AWS SDDCs and other hyperscaler environments, deploying HCX automatically downloads, installs, and activates HCX Cloud Manager. You obtain the HCX Connector OVA file from the HCX Cloud Manager service. See Deploying HCX from the VMware Cloud on AWS Console.

Note: For information regarding HCX for VMware Cloud Director deployments, see VMware Knowledge Base article 94012.
