Installing the Hyperglance Virtual Machine Server
You need to download the Hyperglance installation software to the ESXi server prior to installation. Go to www.real-status.com, and click Download for Free.
To install the Hyperglance server:
- From the vSphere client, click .
- Go to the directory where the downloaded Hyperglance server VM resides.
- Click Next through the OVF Template Details.
- At the Name and Location section, name the VM.
- Use the default settings in Disk Format.
- Click Next to go to the Network Mapping section. Under Destination Networks, select the destination your sever interface will reside on (eth0 configured for DHCP).
- Click Next to finish the configuration. Importing may take several minutes to finish.
- Start the Hyperglance VM from the vSphere client by right-clicking, selecting power, power on, or by selecting the VM, and then clicking the green arrow icon on the vSphere client toolbar.
-
Log on to the server console.
Logon = hyperglance/hyperglance
root = sudo su/password = hyperglance
Manual config = /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
- Enter the following command to see what IP address the server retained: <ifconfig> as eth0 is configured for DHCP initially. If a static is needed the following steps can be used for manual configuration.
-
If a second interface is needed for your configuration:
Note
- Manual configuration of the interface(s) can be done by vi of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.
- If an additional interface is required user can cp ifcfg-eth0 to cfg-eth1. DHCP or static can be configured. A mapping on the ESXi server is also required in order for eth1 to become functional.
- Select Hyperglance Server VM through the vSphere client.
- In the right pane click Edit virtual machine settings, and then Add a Network adapter.
- Select the correct adapter type E1000 and configured Network connection for that interface. You may need to reboot the VM.
- If problems occur,enter the following command <rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules>, and then reboot.
