Zero-Touch Hardware Provisioning and Deployment 63
Once the deployment template is created, the Deployment Wizard can be
used to gather the information necessary to create a scheduled job that
provisions server hardware and deploys new hosts in vCenter. Lastly, the Job
Queue can be used to view job status and make changes to pending
deployment jobs.
Understanding Deployment Job Times
Provisioning and deploying bare-metal servers can take between 30 minutes
and a couple of hours to complete, depending on certain factors. When
starting a deployment job, it is recommended that you plan your deployment
time according to the guidelines provided.
The amount of time it takes to complete provisioning and deployment varies
with deployment type, complexity, and number of deployment jobs running
simultaneously. Table 4-1 gives you guidelines of the approximate time a
deployment job may take.
Deployment jobs are run in batches of up to five concurrent servers, to
improve time for the overall deployment job. The exact number of
concurrent jobs depends on resources available.
Table 4-1. Approximate Deployment Time Scenarios
Server States Within the Deployment Sequence
When an inventory job is run, auto-discovered bare-metal systems are
classified in different states to help determine if the server is new to the
datacenter or has a pending deployment job scheduled. Administrators can
use these states to determine if a server should be included in a deployment
job. The states are:
•Unconfigured
- The server has contacted the Management Plug-In and is
waiting to be configured.
Deployment Type Approximate Time Per Deployment
Hypervisor only Between 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Hardware only Up to 2 hours depending on the
complexity and the RAID, BIOS, and
boot options to configure
Hypervisor and Hardware profiles 1 to 4 hours
