DATA CENTER EXPERT VIRTUAL APPLIANCE

EcoStruxureIT
‎2019-11-20 06:15 AM

Last Updated: JLehr ‎2024-09-30 07:48 AM

The EcoStruxure IT Data Center Expert Virtual Appliance help fully describes
deploying the Data Center Expert virtual appliance, and the upgrade and
migration processes. It is available as a separate document on the APC web site.

 

Download the 5 node trial of the Data Center Expert Virtual machine

 

The Data Center Expert server is available as a virtual appliance, supported on
VMware ESXi 6.7 or newer, and, in DCE 8.1.1 and newer, supported on Hyper-V
running on Windows Server 2019 and 2022.

The full-featured demo of the virtual appliance monitors up to five device nodes
and one surveillance node.

 

You can purchase a license key to upgrade to a production version to monitor
additional device nodes and activate supported applications, or to migrate from
a server hardware version to a virtual appliance.

 

Note: In Data Center Expert 8.1.0 and newer, the Data Center Expert Virtual
Appliance OVA is built on VMware ESXi 6.7. Only E1000E and VMXNET3 network
adapters are supported.

 

VMware ESXi 4.1.0 was used as the reference virtualization platform in previous
versions and during the development of the Data Center Expert 7.2.x virtual
appliance, and is the first supported virtualization platform.

 

Although the DCE VM may function properly on any virtualization platform that
supports these formats or has an appropriate converter utility, only VMware ESXi
and on-premises Hyper-V have been tested and are supported.

 

To use the full-featured demo version of the Data Center Expert virtual
appliance, you download the *.ova or *.vhdx file from the APC web site, and
deploy it to your virtualization platform using the default hardware
configuration.
For more information, see Hardware resource configuration guidelines and Data
Center Expert virtual appliance equivalent configurations.

 

The demo version monitors a maximum of five device nodes and one surveillance
node by default.

To monitor 25 device nodes, add license keys to monitor additional nodes, or
activate supported applications, you must upgrade the Data Center Expert virtual
appliance demo to the production version.

 

Note: You can add an additional network adapter to enable private networking, or
add additional hard disks to increase storage, after the Data Center Expert
virtual appliance is deployed.

 

To upgrade the demo to the production version, you must purchase and apply an
activation key, available on the APC web site.

To monitor additional device nodes or activate supported applications, you must
purchase and apply node license keys and application license keys for the
virtual appliance.

 

To migrate a Data Center Expert hardware server to a virtual appliance, you must
purchase and apply an activation key, and contact APC Support for new node
license keys and application license keys for the virtual appliance.

To receive these keys, you are required to provide a unique MAC address and
serial number for the Data Center Expert virtual appliance, and for the Data
Center Expert hardware server you are replacing.

 

A unique serial number is generated for the Data Center Expert virtual appliance
at startup. It is displayed in the About Data Center Expert display, accessed
from the Help menu.

 

Note: The serial number for a Data Center Expert hardware server appears only on
its serial number sticker.
