Partially distributed
End of Marketing: As of 31 October 2025, new deployments of VMware Solutions offerings are no longer available for new customers. Existing customers can still use and expand their active VMware® workloads on IBM Cloud®. For more information, see End of Marketing for VMware on IBM Cloud.
After the automated deployment is completed, you can manually scale out by increasing RAM and disk in the initial virtual machine (VM) and add three scale-out VMs. The RiskForesight™ configuration script can be run to enable and configure the application components on all four VMs.
This deployment model is expected to service up to 500 assets with up to 30 days of data indexing.
Select the next available IP addresses from the IBM Cloud® private portable subnet. Configure FQDN names in ADDNS.
