VMware vCloud Director Cookbook

Creating a sandbox environment

Let's create a test environment that cleans up automatically after its users.

Getting ready

We will be creating a new organization and OvDC. So, we need a PvDC with some spare CPU usage, memory, and disk space (the best option would be an own storage profile) for this organization.

In addition to this, a network pool is useful, as it allows users to create their own little isolated networks.

If you would like to allow users access the Internet or the corporate network, you might like to add an External Network into the mix. Alternatively, you may like to create an isolated OrgNet to make inter-vApp connection possible.

How to do it...

We will now create all the parts we need for a sandbox environment.
