CAUTION:
Hazard of data loss When you install or reinstall SPS in a virtual
environment, always create new hard disks. Using existing hard
disks can cause unexpected behavior and operational problems.
l
Configure a fixed size disk with at least 20 GiB space. About 10 GiB is
required for the base system, the remaining disk space is used to store
data. To increase the initial disk size, see
Modifying the disk size of a SPS
.
l
NOTE:
SPS will use the network card with the lowest PCI ID as eth0 (
Physical
interface 1
), the card with the second lowest PCI ID as eth1 (the
Physical interface 2
), and so on. In some cases, this might differ from
the labels in the VMWare management interface, for example, it is
possible that eth0 will be labeled as
Network adapter 4
, and as a result,
the SPS Welcome Wizard will not be available on
Network adapter 1
.
SPS requires at least one network card (preferably
VMXNET3
) to function.
Configurations can use up to 6 network cards.
NOTE:
The fourth (eth3) network card is reserved for High Availability mode by
default. Therefore, make sure you enable, but do not attach, the fourth
(eth3) network card to a network.
2. After creating the virtual machine, edit the settings of the machine. Set the
following options:
a. Under
Options > VMware Tools
enable the
Shutdown, Suspend, Reset
options, otherwise the SPS administrator will not be able to access these
functions from the SPS web interface.
b. Under
Options > Boot options
enable the
Force BIOS Setup
option. This is
required to be able to check the system time (and modify it if needed) before
installing SPS.
and download the latest One Identity Safeguard for
Privileged Sessions installation ISO file. Note that you need to have purchased SPS
as a virtual appliance or have partner access to download One Identity Safeguard for
Privileged Sessions ISO files. If you are a partner but do not see the ISO files, you
can request partner access within
4. Mount the ISO image and boot the virtual machine. Follow the on-screen instructions
to install SPS.
