Modes of Deployments

There are two ways in which GigaVUE fabric components can be deployed using the third party orchestration. They are:

• Generic Mode
• Integrated Mode

Generic Mode

In generic mode, when deploying the fabric components, you can provide the monitoring domain and connection name directly in your orchestrator. A Monitoring Domain will be created under the Third Party Orchestration monitoring domain page in GigaVUE‑FM and your GigaVUE fabric components will be deployed in that monitoring domain. Or you can also create a monitoring domain under Third Party Orchestration and provide the monitoring domain name and the connection name in the user data that will be used in your orchestrator.

In generic mode, the platform credentials are not shared with GigaVUE-FM.

Integrated Mode

In integrated mode, you create a monitoring domain in your respective cloud suite in GigaVUE-FM and then use your own orchestration system to just deploy nodes. The fabric components deployed using your own orchestration system will be displayed under the monitoring domain created in your respective cloud suite. In this case, ensure that the monitoring domain and the connection name given in the GigaVUE-FM matches the groupName and subGroupName in the user data provided in your orchestration system.

In integrated mode, the platform credentials are shared with GigaVUE-FM. Only the GigaVUE fabric components deployment happens in the platform. In this mode, platform connection created is made to do inventory of all the VMs. This mode supports VPC mirroring and UCT-V in AWS.
