How To Install And Configure The VMware VCloud Suite

In this article I'm going to show you how to setup a virtualization server using vCloud Director in a 7-minute solution. Many people still don't understand what VCD is and why it's so critical in modern cloud computing. By default, if you install vCloud on your Windows Server 2021 or higher you won't be able to use it with Virtualization because it doesn't support the VDI type of deployment. But it's actually a plug-in which makes it super easy to do and allows you to make a fully functional VDI deployment with very little effort. In this article we're going to cover some of the most important parts of the installation and configuration so you can quickly deploy and use VCD with ease.

The first thing we need to do is download and install the VCD software. If you're on windows servers 2021 then you should already have it; if not you can download it from the official site and install it. Once installed you will need to configure your Virtualization Server. This is done by clicking on the Server in the left panel and selecting "virtualization" from the list of choices.

We need to enter some information into the Virtualization Servers text box. Enter your name and domain name and select Save. Now we have our Server set up! We now want to deploy our application. To do that, you will click on the + sign next to the deployment button.

Here we want to make two changes: we want to add the URL of the old application you want to use for the deployment and then we want to remove the existing one. After both changes are made you should see a blue screen to appear. Click on the Remove deployment entry and it will disappear. Then you want to select Create Virtual Machine and follow the wizard.

The next step is to install the software. Again if you're using OSX or Linux, you can use the command line option to install the software. If you're using Windows, you will need to download and install the VirtualBox Drivers. After you have everything installed, you will need to configure the Virtual Machines and then create your first VMWare Virtual Environment. This will take a few minutes.

Once it is completed the last thing you will want to do is to test everything to make sure everything is running smoothly. In the console you will notice that you have rebooted your Virtual Environment. Just check to make sure it is working and then continue your VMWare deployment. If everything was Successful then great!
