First thing to do is importing the OVA or OVF.
You need to create a root password and enter the network details of the appliance (Hostname, IP, Netmask, Gateway, DNS)
Then wait until the appliance has been deployed
Once the appliance booted, browse to the webinterface
https://<IP of Appliance>:5480/
Login using root and the password you have created when deploying the OVA/OVF
Configure your timezone
Configure a time server
Assign an SSO password for [email protected]
This process will take a few minutes to complete
Once initialized, configure the host for SSO, making sure you add the SSO port 7774
It also seems to give problems when host names include uppercase characters, so make sure it is all lower case and reflects the FQDN configured in DNS
You will not receive a green confirmation this time
Now upload your SSL certificate (PEM) or generate a self-signed one (my choice here)
Now join the appliance to AD
Now you can check for updates as well. Update with caution though, always making sure that later versions are compatible with all components you currently run (and test in lab first)
