Before setting up a vNIOS appliance as a Grid Master or Grid member, you must install the virtual appliance on the XenServer using the XenCenter client. Instructions in this section assume that you have configured the server on your network, and you are able to connect to it from your management station. For information about configuring the XenServer, refer to the Citrix documentation. Infoblox recommends that you back up your existing configuration before deploying vNIOS configuration.
To deploy a vNIOS appliance, log in to the XenCenter client, connect to the XenServer and then complete the following:
- Install the vNIOS virtual appliance on the server, as described in Installing the vNIOS for Xen Virtual Appliance.
- Configure the NIC (Virtual Network Adapter) of the vNIOS appliance, as described in Configuring the Virtual NIC.
- Start the vNIOS virtual appliance, as described in Starting vNIOS Appliance using XenCenter Client.
