Creating location templates for VMware
A location template contains virtual machine attributes such as data center location,
resource pool, and datastore for the agent virtual machines to be hosted in the cloud. After
creating location templates, when creating a cloud schedule, you associate the location templates
with the schedule and specify the number of agent virtual machines to use to run the
schedule.
Before you begin
- Ensure that you have downloaded the agent template and imported it to the vCenter server, as described in https://rptcloudmgr.rational.ibmcloud.com/vmware/.
- Ensure that you have an IBM ID.
- Ensure that you have a promotional code or a subscription ID. See About Promotional code and Subscription ID.
