Installation on VmWare cloud

TBSC VmWare Image

A virtual machine image is a single file that contains a virtual disk that has a bootable operating system installed on it. Images are used to create virtual machine instances within the cloud.

You will need to upload the latest TSBC image into your VmWare before you can launch a virtual machine instance running the TSBC software.

Launching an instance

Using the ESXi Web client

Using the vSphere client application

Accessing the TSBC-SW

Accessing the TSBC-SW web portal

  1. Open a web browser to the management IP of the TSBC, on port 12358. Example if your server address is 10.0.0.79, the URL would be:
    http://10.0.0.79:12358
  2. You should get to the TSBC Configuration Wizard

From here, you can go to Web Portal Initial Configuration Guide to continue the installation, and/or optimize your server to get the maximum out of your server.
