Instructions
vApp Version (Recommended)
- Deploy VURA appliance in location with internet access
- Add disks to VM as necessary to ensure that 2x the size of your appliances to update will be available. The boot scripts will handle all partitioning automatically
- Boot the appliance and wait for the Web UI to become available
- Obtain the Update URL from the administration page of your VAMI appliance (usually https://[your appliance IP]:5480)
- Point your browser to the IP address of the VURA appliance
- Paste the URL in the URL field of the UI
- Give the repository a name without spaces or special characters
- Press the Create button
- Migrate the VURA appliance to your desired environment
- You may now either download the ISO image and attach it to your VM to upgrade it, or paste the Update URL into the administration page of your appliance
Source Version
Ensure you have adequate disk space to host 2x the size of the update repository you will be downloading. You can assume it will be similar in size to the original OVA image you used to deploy it.
- Download source tree to a machine that has Python 2.7
- Execute vura.py as a user that can bind port 80 (or use authbind - recommended)
- Follow appliance instructions starting at Step 4
