DDMC can be deployed from an OVF file by providing all required information such as hostname, IP address, storage, and so on. To manage DDRs, add them to the DDMC.

To enable the Smart Scale service for a data center, the administrator can use the DDMC UI to deploy the DDNVM. One DDNVM can be deployed for each data center.

The following figure shows that Advanced Services are not deployed in the data center Santa Clara North. By clicking Deploy Services, it creates a DDNVM for this data center after providing the information, such as where the DDNVM needs to be deployed, vCenter credentials, name, and IP with network details of the DDNVM and the port numbers.
