Configure DDVE in GCP
About this task
NOTE Avoid disabling or modifying the primary interface settings. The primary interface in cloud deployments has the default gateway setting and is the only interface with which the DDVE can connect to the metadata server. The metadata server is critical for DDVE operation.
There are two ways to configure a DDVE after deployment:
- Using DDSM Interface
- Using the CLI
Before you begin:
- Consider metadata storage size and count requirements. Refer to Storage Best Practices for additional information.
- Create the GCP storage bucket. Make note of the bucket name, as you will need it when you create the cloud profile.
- If the storage class is selected as regional, we recommend that you create the bucket in the same region as the DDVE instance.
- Select the authentication method. See
Cloud storage authentication method.
- For the OAuth 2.0 authentication method, create the service account with the correct privileges to access Google cloud storage. See Using OAuth 2.0 (recommended).
- For the HMAC authentication method, retrieve the access and secret key from the GCP console. See Using HMAC-based access and secret keys.
Steps
- To configure DDVE by using DDSM, see Configure DDVE in GCP using DDSM.
- To configure DDVE by using CLI, see Configure DDVE in GCP using CLI.
