Kaleido-IP VM
Quick Start Guide
• You have VMware ESXi version 5.5 or later already installed on your target machine (i.e.,
the machine you will install Kaleido-IP VM on).
• You have the appropriate client-side software installed on a client PC to communicate
with the server’s hypervisor software.
In the procedure below, the VMware vSphere Client is used to interface with VMware
vSphere server-side software.
• You know the IP address you will use to configure the Kaleido-IP virtual machine within
your management network, as well as the appropriate network mask and gateway
address (contact your network administrator, if needed).
• To meet a performance of 24 HD H.264 simultaneous video decodes, your target
machine hardware specifications (for EACH virtual machine) are as follows:
• CPU: Minimum 2 virtual sockets, with 12 cores per socket, for a total of 24 physical
cores (48 logical cores) (54 GHz reserved)
• Memory: Minimum 24 GB (24576 MB reserved)
• Hard drive: Minimum 160 GB
• Network adapters: Between 1 and 6, to match your intended Kaleido-IP
configuration
Client PC or Laptop
A client PC or laptop meeting the following requirements is required to access the XAdmin
Web client, and the other Kaleido-X client applications.
Step 1: Creating the Kaleido-IP Virtual Machine
The installation of an Kaleido-IP image on a virtual machine is simple. As long as the
requirements above are met, the whole process should not take more than ten to fifteen
minutes. Follow the procedure below to install a Kaleido-IP multiviewer on a virtual

To install a Kaleido-IP OVA image on a VMware vSphere server

IMPORTANT
Although OVA is an open-standard VM format, to date, Grass Valley has only
qualified the OVA standard using VMware hypervisor software. Additionally,
Grass Valley only supports installing Kaleido-IP VM on VMware-qualified
hardware platforms that have
Intel CPUs. For more information on supported
hardware platforms, see the VMware Compatibility Guide .
