This cmdlet downloads the latest JetStream DR software bundle, deploys the OVA with provided configuration details, registers the MSA VM with the vCenter and installs (configures) IO Filter software on a cluster. This cmdlet uses a static IP address to deploy the MSA VM and should be used whenever possible.

Install-JetDRWithStaticIP Run command.


Command Parameters: Install-JetDRWithStaticIP

Network

Network segment name to be allotted to the MSA VM.

HostName

FQDN of the MSA VM to be deployed.

MSACredential

Root user credential of the MSA VM.

Gateway

The gateway IP to configure the MSA VM network.

DNS

DNS IP(s) the MSA VM should use.

MSAIP

Static IP address for the MSA VM.

NetMask

Subnet mask for the MSA VM.

VlanId

VLAN ID for the MSA VM. (Can be left blank if not required.)

Cluster

Cluster where the MSA VM will be deployed.

VMName

Name of the MSA VM to be deployed. (If left blank, the default name '[email protected]+jetdr' will be used.)

Datastore

Datastore to where the MSA VM will be deployed.

ProtectedCluster

Cluster to be configured for protection. (If multiple configurable clusters are available, select one.)

RegisterWithIp

Use this option if the FQDN provided is not present in the DNS records and vCenter cannot communicate with the MSA VM via FQDN. If this option is set to 'true', IP will be used for registration and communication.

(It is recommended to use a valid FQDN so if at a later point in time the IP of the MSA VM changes, communication can still occur through FQDN. If it is known the IP will not change and it is not possible to add a FQDN in the DNS server, this option can be used.)


Note: Starting from version 5.1.2 of the JSDR.Configuration package, after the MSA VM is deployed it is moved to a secure folder – so most common actions like power on/off, launch console, etc. are not available to users with cloudadmin privileges. This has been done for enhanced security of the appliance.
