About this task

Use this procedure to add an Avaya Solutions Platform 130 Release 5.1 host. You can associate an Avaya Solutions Platform 130 Release 5.1 host with an existing location.

Before you begin

  • If you are connected to the Avaya Solutions Platform 130 host through the services port using the SDM client, perform the following:

    1. Edit the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts file in your laptop to add the IP Address and FQDN of the host.

    2. Add the host in the format 192.11.13.6 <changed FQDNname>

      For example: 192.11.13.6 esxihost6.hostdomain.com

  • If Appliance Virtualization Platform that was migrated to Avaya Solutions Platform 130 Release 5.1 is available in Solution Deployment Manager on the Platforms tab, remove that Appliance Virtualization Platform and then add the Avaya Solutions Platform 130 Release 5.1 host.

  • Regenerate the self-signed certificate using the FQDN.

    See "Regenerating Avaya Solutions Platform 130 self-signed certificate with FQDN using the command line interface”.

  • Add Avaya Solutions Platform 130 host to an existing location or associate it with a new location.

  • Install a valid license file on the Avaya Solutions Platform 130 Release 5.1 host.

Procedure

  1. To add an Avaya Solutions Platform 130 host using System Manager SDM or SDM client, choose one of the following:

    • For System Manager SDM, on the System Manager web console, click Services > Solution Deployment Manager > Application Management.

      On the desktop, click the SDM icon (Icon used to open the Solution Deployment Manager client dashboard), and then click Application Management.

    • For SDM client, on the SDM Client web console, click Application Management.

  2. In Application Management Tree, select an existing location or add a new location.
  3. On the Platforms tab, in the Platforms for Selected Location <location name> section, click Add.
  4. In the New Platform section, do the following:
    1. Provide details of Platform name, Platform FQDN, username, and password.

      For Avaya Solutions Platform 130 deployment, you can also provide the root username.

    2. In Platform Type, select ASP 130/S8300.
  5. Click Save.

    The Avaya Solutions Platform 130 certificate is updated based on the platform FQDN.

After adding an Avaya Solutions Platform 130 host using System Manager SDM or SDM client, perform the following:

  1. Deploy the required virtual machines.
  2. In the Certificate dialog box, click Accept Certificate.

    System Manager generates the certificate and adds the Avaya Solutions Platform 130 host.

    In the Application Management Tree, System Manager displays the new host in the specified location and discovers applications.
