You now create the system images for the virtual machines.
Follow these steps:
https://servername:port/ssrm
See your Installation Worksheet for these values.
The Administration page opens.
The System Images page opens. This page lists the inventory of operating system images and virtual machine templates that are available for users to select when reserving systems. From this page, you can define the operating system images or virtual machine templates to make available to users.
The Add VM Template wizard opens on the Select Image page.
The information automatically populates based on the first available template in vCenter.
Note: After you assign a VMware template to a Reservation Manager system image, you cannot assign it to another system and the template does not appear again.
Note: Templates for VMware reservations must be in the same data center as the resource pools available to users.
The Specify Custom Specification page opens.
Note: Because of the guest operating system type (Windows or Linux) you selected, only the VMware custom specification files for that operating system type appear. You can assign a VMware custom specification file to multiple Reservation Manager system images.
The Specify Software page opens.
Note: This screen is available only if you have the CA Server Automation installed and integrated with the CA IT Client Manager (Software Delivery). After you have imported the Software Delivery packages and made them available, they appear in the Available Software Group window.
The Available Software Group list contains software that the administrator has identified as being compatible with the selected operating system. This list is filtered to display only software that you are authorized to access. Authorization is based on the organizational unit that your user name has been assigned to.
The selected software is installed on the system in the order it is listed in the Selected Software Group list. Use the up and down arrow buttons to modify the order of software in the list.
The Specify Access Policy page opens.
Note: Before you grant access to users, grant the rmadministrators user group access so you can test creating reservations for virtual machine templates.
You can grant access to the resource pool later.
The System Images page opens and lists the template that has been successfully added to the inventory.
You have created and configured Reservation Manager system image.
