See Providing inputs for deploying virtual appliances through Azure Marketplace.
- Click OK and review the summary displayed in the Summary section.
- Click OK to view and accept the terms and conditions.
- Click Create to create the instances:
This step creates selected virtual appliance(s) and completes the bootstrap of appliances with the provided inputs. It also creates the required network security groups and network interfaces. An additional staging disk is also created during Replication Gateway deployment.
- For security reasons, the template disables the SSH communication to the instances. Once the deployment completes, you need to enable the SSH communication to the instances. The password is required for logging in to the Resiliency Manager console. The password is also required for adding the IMS, Replication Gateway to Resiliency Manager.
Modify the security group of each instance to include the inbound SSH port (TCP port 22) for the required source IP or security group.
For security reasons, by default inbound for all virtual appliances is set to the Virtual Network (VNet) CIDR. You can modify security group of each appliance later according to your requirement.
- Log in to the Resiliency Manager console and setup the initial infrastructure through Getting Started wizard.
