Perform the following steps for the VMware SDDC bring-up:
In the Bringing Up the SDDC page, click Next to start the deployment of Cloud Foundation.
Note: You can monitor the deployment progress on the Bringing Up the SDDC page and this deployment process may require two hours or more, depending on your environment.
If a bring-up failure occurs, expand the failed line item, review the detailed error messages. Depending on the nature of the error, resolve all the reported failures and click Retry.
Note: If an unrecoverable failure occurs during SDDC bring-up, it is necessary to resolve the root cause issue, wipe the Cloud Foundation target servers including all disk partitions, and then restart from the Deploy ESXi to cluster nodes section.
The SDDC bring-up process is completed when the Cloud Builder reports that the SDDC has been successfully created.
When the SDDC bring-up process is complete, this indicates that the Cloud Foundation is successfully deployed.
Access the recently deployed SDDC Manager by clicking the link on the page.
Confirm deployment of vCenter, vSAN, NSX-T, and vRealize Log Insight.
