Installing appliances
1. Install the Core or Core in the data center network.
2. Connect the Core appliance to the storage array.
3. Through the Core, discover and configure the desired LUNs on the storage array.
4. (Recommended) Enable and configure HA.
5. (Recommended) Enable and configure multipath I/O (MPIO) for iSCSI connected storage.
If you have decided to use MPIO, you must configure it at two separate and independent points: iSCSI initiator and iSCSI target. If you are using Fibre Channel connected LUNs, make sure you enable multiple paths on the vSphere host on which the Core is deployed.
Additional steps are required on the Edge to complete a typical installation. A high-level series of steps is shown in the following procedure.
1. Install the Edge in the branch office network.
2. On the appliance, configure disk management to enable product storage mode.
3. Preconfigure the Edge for connection to Core.
4. Connect the Edge and the Core.
