Insight Control server provisioning hardware
Insight Control server provisioning is a VM appliance that runs on a separate VMware vSphere
(ESXi) or Microsoft Hyper-V host. It requires two IP addresses; a management address that is used
to connect to the appliance web interface and REST API, and a deployment IP that is used for
communicating with the target servers. The appliance can be configured in either single NIC
configuration where the two IPs share the same NIC, or a dual NIC configuration where each IP
is on a separate NIC.
In a single NIC configuration, both IP addresses must be in the same subnet and must have
connectivity to the target servers, the target server iLOs, and the media server. In a dual NIC
configuration, NIC1 is considered the management NIC and is used to connect to the appliance.
NIC2 is considered the deployment NIC and must have connectivity to the deployment NIC on
each target server and the media server. Connectivity to the target server iLOs can be through
either the deployment or management NIC.
Insight Control server provisioning and Insight Control server deployment cannot be active on the
same network at the same time because they both make use of PXE. They should be configured
on separate networks or only one can be actively configured for booting at a time. Table 12
(page 13) lists the hardware requirements for Insight Control server provisioning based on the size
of the configuration (demo, small or large). At a minimum, the Insight Control server provisioning
appliance must have at least 4 CPUs, 16 GB memory, and 200 GB of disk space.

A new appliance is configured with two network interfaces but can be configured to use
one or both of them. Appliances upgraded from a previous version will have a single
interface, but can have a second one added if desired.
