Providing inputs for Resiliency Platform CloudFormation Templates
You need to provide inputs for creating instances using CloudFormation templates (CFT). Some of the fields get auto populated with the default value, you can change the values if required. For rest of the parameters, you need to enter a valid value.
Table: Resiliency Platform Infrastructure Components Selection
Field | Description |
---|---|
Enter Resiliency Manager instance Name | Enter the name of the Resiliency Manager instance. |
Enter IMS instance Name | Enter the name of the IMS instance. |
Enter Replication Gateway instance Name | Enter the name of the Replication Gateway instance. |
Enter KMS Key ARN if the staging disk needs to be encrypted | If you want to encrypt staging disks attached to the gateways using the KMS key, then select ARN of the respective KMS from the KMS Key drop-down. Else keep the default value as 'Not Encrypted'. |
Deploy Veritas Data Gateway | Optional parameter You need to deploy Data Gateway only if you want to use Object Storage for replication. See About Data Gateway. |
Table: IAM Role Configuration
Field | Description |
---|---|
Create 'ImportSnapshotRole' AWS IAM role for VRP? | Resiliency Platform requires ImportSnapshotRole for recovery of assets to AWS. Select Yes to create the role. Make sure that you have permission.Select if you already have ImportSnapshotRole role. |
Create 'VRPApplianceStackUpdateRole' AWS IAM role for VRP? | Resiliency Platform requires a role with certain permissions for upgrading AWS cloud infrastructure. See About applying updates to Resiliency Platform. If you don't have a role with these permissions, select yes to create a default role. Make sure that you have permission.Select if you already have a role with the required permissions. |
Table: Resiliency Platform Infrastructure Components EC2 Instance Configuration
Field | Description |
---|---|
Select Instance Type | This field is auto-populated with the best fit instance type. You can change the default value, if required. |
Select SSH Key pair | Select the appropriate SSH key pair. While selecting the SSH key pair, ensure that you already have access to the pair. This is critical because SSH key pair is the only way to log in to the system and you cannot change the SSH key pair after the EC2 instance gets created. |
Select Staging disk size for Replication Gateway | Enter the size of the staging disk for Replication Gateway in the unit of GB. The minimum supported disk size of 50GB lets you protect up to 4 virtual machines and to protect more virtual machines an additional staging storage of 12 GB per virtual machine is required. |
Name of the IAM role that the Resiliency Platform appliances should use to update their CloudFormation stacks | Enter the name of IAM role that the Resiliency Platform appliances should use to update AWS infrastructure during upgrade. See About applying updates to Resiliency Platform. Leave unchanged if you have chosen to create the default role for this purpose. |
