HP StoreOnce VSA Deployment and Configuration Guide (TC458-96024)

Before you start deployment
NOTE: If you ordered StoreOnce VSA for electronic delivery, you will get a link to download a
ZIP file in your order confirmation email. If you ordered StoreOnce VSA or physical delivery, you
will receive a DVD with an ISO image. Neither the ZIP file nor ISO image can be used directly to
deploy the StoreOnce VSA.
If you ordered StoreOnce VSA for electronic delivery
1. Select the link in the order confirmation email. This will take you to a web page from where
you can go to download the software and get your license key.
2. Select the link to download software, then select the StoreOnce VSA ZIP file appropriate to
your hypervisor environment and follow the instructions to download it. You will be required
to sign in with HP Passport, which can be created when you first access the site.
3. Download the package to the appropriate location, as follows:
• If you download the Hyper-V package: copy the VHD.ZIP to the Windows server on which
Hyper-V is enabled.
• If you download the VMWare package: unzip the StoreOnce VSA ZIP file to the
appropriate location for the deployment method. The OVF package may be unzipped
into any folder accessible on the network. Bear in mind that deployment speed will depend
upon network performance, if the OVF package is not on the same machine as the client.
