There are situations where one will need two independent vClouds accessing the same vSphere infrastructure.
We just need an existing vCloud and the building blocks for a new one. These building blocks are:
RedHat Linux VM (RHEL) 5 or 6 (6.3 is the highest version with vCD 5.1.2)
Root credentials for RHEL VM
vCloud Director Binary
New NFS shared directory (optional)
New database for vCloud
New VMware vCloud Director licence
Or you can use the vCloud appliance.
Install RHEL on the VM.
Transfer the vCloud Director Binary to the new RHEL VM using SCP (with a program such as WinSCP), and put it in the
/tmp
directory.Log in to the new RHEL.
Gain root access if you haven't logged in as
root
.Assign the second IP to the interface
eth0:0
as shown in the Setting up networks for the vCloud VM recipe.Configure the firewall to allow HTTPS (port 443) traffic.
Execute the vCloud Binary. You may have to change the permissions...
