Connect your Hardware to vHaaS

Prerequisites

Steps

1. Create an Assembly Profile

Create an Assembly Profile that represents your hardware. We recommend you to copy one of our examples as a starting point.

You can upload a simple version first. Refine and edit the Assembly Profile later

2. Open the Add Assembly Dialog

Open the Add Assembly dialog from the menu in the Navbar, or from the Assemblies tab in the Explorer.

3. Follow the Steps in the Dialog

  • Upload the Assembly Profile.
  • Assign the Assembly to a Cluster. If you don't have Cluster to assign it to, you can also set the status to On-Stock. This means the hardware setup is added to the system but cannot be used.
  • Define Assembly owners to delegate management and maintenance rights.
  • Assign an Execution Environment to the Assembly. Without an Execution Environment, the Assembly cannot be accessed. To create one first, see Set Up an Execution Environment.

An Assembly and its Execution Environments always belong to the same Cluster. An Assembly needs at least one assigned Execution Environment to be accessible

Result

You added an Assembly to the system. You can now find it in the Overview and open its Assembly Page.
