In previous post, we explored how to deploy an HP VSA System. Now we are going to configure HP VSA appliance networking.
- Access vSphere Web Client and access appliance which we recently deployed in previous article.
- Go to Host and Click on Virtual Machines Section. You will see HP VSA appliance system as a Virtual machine over there. Now right click on that and click on Open remote console.
- Open Console for HP VSA Appliance. You will get below screen.

- Type Start

- Select Login and Press Enter.

- Select Network TCP/IP Settings.

- Select eth0.

- Provide hostname which want to put for HP VSA system.
- Provide IP Address configuration for HP VSA.
- Click on OK.

Perform the same steps for both appliances in Protected and Recovery Site.
