Upload the ZLR installation package and deploy ZLR Service in ZSphere.

Before you begin

  • You are logged in as the admin user.
  • You have obtained the ZLR installation package in QCOW2 format.
  • An image storage, host, and data storage with normal status and sufficient capacity are available.
  • A distributed port group is available for the service VM. To upload the package from a URL, make sure that the management node can access the URL.

Procedure

  1. On the navigation pane, choose Platform Service > All Services.
  2. On the ZLR Service card, click Install.
  3. In the deployment drawer, click Upload Package and configure the package upload settings.

    Select how to upload the installation package:

    • URL: Upload the package from an HTTP or HTTPS URL that ends with .qcow2.
    • Local Upload: Select a QCOW2 package from your local computer.
    URL/Installation Package Enter the package URL or select a local package. The displayed option depends on the selected upload method.
