Refresh the Networks tab in the infrastructure orchestration console. A new network appears
named the same as the DIO network ports label you used on the VM host.

Click Edit Networks to edit the network configuration parameters.

NOTE:

Because DIO cards do not support PXE booting, the Boot Network and the Deployment

Server options are unavailable.

After the DIO network is configured on the Networks in the infrastructure orchestration console,
the network is available to be used in templates in infrastructure orchestration designer.

NOTE:

A virtual logical server requires at least one boot network along with a DIO network.

Configuring pools

Pools are groups of resources used to submit requests to create new infrastructure services or add
to existing infrastructure services. A new pool must be created and users must be assigned to it
before initiating any requests.

The infrastructure orchestration console Servers tab displays the following types of resources,
depending on the selection in the Display list.

types of provisionable resources:

ESX resource pools

ESX resource pools are a type of compute resource created using VMware vCenter or the
virtual machine management CLI, and are discovered by infrastructure orchestration. ESX
resource pools are available for infrastructure orchestration to use to provision virtual machines
