Scenario 2: Add ESXi Host and Enable vSAN Workflows
• Purpose: to run setup steps for a new host and for HyperConverged using VSAN
• Why: to get some hands-on with running catalogs and with infrastructure management
• Steps
Run the “Add ESXi host” catalog as demouser
Run the “Enable vSAN” catalog as demouser
Perform some additional configuration on the POD in the Converged Infrastructure view

Scenario 3: Self-Service Catalog for Predefined Workflow
• Purpose: to see how self-service works for basic VM requests
• Why: to understand what an end-user would see
• Steps
Submit a VM request without approval using demouser
Submit a VM request as demouser with approval by admin
Note: users and groups have already been configured.
Users and groups, both Local as well as LDAP integrated are managed in the Administration menu.

Scenario 4: Application Container Deployment• Purpose: to see how to provision multiple VMs across several network segments
• Why: for teams that want to be able to deploy environments from a template
• Steps
Provision a new container as demouser
Examine the template used for the container creation

Scenario 5: Bare Metal Provisioning using Bare Metal Agent
• Purpose: to see how to deploy an OS to a bare metal machine
• Why: the time consuming, physical server installation process, can be automated
• Steps
Enable VMRC to monitor the installation (new PXE request has already been done)
View the settings of Bare Metal Agent
Create a new PXE request (can be automated using workflow engine)
Change the network configuration of the host from the PXE VLAN to the production VLAN
Note: in the lab we are doing Bare Metal against a VM but all the same concepts apply to a physical server

Scenario 6: Analytics and Reports• Purpose: to take a look at the reporting capabilities of UCSD
• Why: useful for visibility and troubleshooting
• Steps
Run several tasks in order to populate data (not something you have to do in a real implementation)
View the VMWare map Reports
Open the Stack View for a VM

Scenario 7: Executing Predefined Workflows• Purpose: an introduction to UCS Director workflows
• Why: UCS Director’s orchestration engine is very powerful with over 1000 out-of-box tasks and the gateway to automating your infrastructure
• Steps
Run the workflow “Create vLan in dCloud”
Run the workflow “Create SP and Power On”
