Deploying the Guest Introspection service virtual machines

To deploy the Guest Introspection service virtual machines on VMware clusters:

1. In the VMware vSphere Client console, start the Deployment Wizard for network services and protection services for virtual machines (in the Networking & Security → Installation and Upgrade section on the Service Deployments tab).
2. Use the Wizard to specify the deployment settings:
   1. Select the Guest Introspection service in the table.
   2. Select one or several VMware clusters on which you want to install the File Threat Protection component.
   3. If required, change the default settings for all Guest Introspection service virtual machines that will be deployed on hypervisors within the selected VMware cluster:
      • Network that will be used by the service virtual machines.
      • Storage for deployment of service virtual machines.
      • Method of assigning IP addresses. By default, service virtual machines receive network settings via the DHCP protocol. You can configure a static pool of IP addresses that will be used for assigning IP addresses to service virtual machines.
3. Finish the Wizard and wait for deployment of the Guest Introspection service to complete.

   A Guest Introspection service virtual machine will be deployed on each hypervisor within the VMware cluster that you selected.
