Selecting infrastructure for SVM deployment

At this step, you need to select the virtual infrastructure in which you want to deploy the SVM. If SVM deployment was not previously performed in this virtual infrastructure, you need to configure the connection of the SVM Management Wizard to the virtual infrastructure. Then select the hypervisors or OpenStack projects for SVM deployment depending on the type of virtual infrastructure.

To configure the connection of SVM Management Wizard to the virtual infrastructure:

  1. Click the Add button.
  2. In the Virtual infrastructure connection settings window that opens, specify the following settings:
    • Type

      Type of virtual infrastructure object that SVM Management Wizard will connect to.

      Depending on the type of virtual infrastructure, select a hypervisor, virtual infrastructure administration server, or Keystone microservice.

    • Protocol

      Protocol used to connect SVM Management Wizard to the virtual infrastructure. By default, the HTTPS protocol is used.

      The Protocol field is displayed if you are configuring a connection to a virtual infrastructure based on the OpenStack platform, VK Cloud platform or TIONIX Cloud Platform.

    • Addresses

      Addresses of the virtual infrastructure objects that SVM Management Wizard will connect to.

      Depending on the type of virtual infrastructure, you need to specify the hypervisor address or the address of the virtual infrastructure administration server. To connect to an OpenStack-based infrastructure, you need to specify the address of the Keystone microservice.

      The address can be specified as the IP address in IPv4 format or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN).

      You can specify multiple addresses by separating them with a semicolon, a space, or a new line. The number of correctly recognized addresses is shown under the list of addresses.

      In this field, you can also specify the port used to connect to the virtual infrastructure object in the format <IP address>:<port>.

      If you are configuring a connection to Microsoft Windows Server (Hyper-V) hypervisors that are part of a hypervisor cluster managed by the Windows Failover Clustering service, you can specify the address of the cluster. All hypervisors that are part of the cluster will be added to the list.

      If you are configuring a connection to VMware ESXi hypervisors managed by VMware vCenter Servers running in Linked mode, you can specify the address of any of these VMware vCenter Servers. All the hypervisors running on VMware vCenter servers in Linked mode will be added to the list.

      If you are configuring a connection to hypervisors that are managed by Microsoft SCVMM, you can specify the settings for connecting to Microsoft SCVMM. All hypervisors that are managed by Microsoft SCVMM will be added to the list.

      If you are configuring a connection to an infrastructure managed by Nutanix Prism Element, you need to specify the Nutanix Prism Element address. If the infrastructure is managed by Nutanix Prism Central, specify the Nutanix Prism Central address. All Nutanix Prism Element servers managed by Nutanix Prism Central will be added to the list.

    • OpenStack domain

      Name of the

      that contains an account used to connect SVM Management Wizard to the virtual infrastructure object.

      The OpenStack domain field is displayed if you are configuring a connection to a virtual infrastructure based on the OpenStack platform, VK Cloud platform or TIONIX Cloud Platform.

    • User name

      Name of the user account that the SVM Management Wizard uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure during SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration. This account must have privileges that are sufficient for SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.

      If you use a domain account to connect to a virtual infrastructure object, you can specify the account name in the <domain>\<user name> or <user name>@<domain> format.

    • Password

      Password of the user account that the SVM Management Wizard uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure during SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.

  3. If you are deploying SVMs in a virtual infrastructure based on XenServer, VMware vSphere, KVM, Proxmox VE, Basis, Skala-R, HUAWEI FusionSphere, Nutanix Acropolis, OpenStack, Alt Virtualization Server, Astra Linux, Numa vServer, VK Cloud platform, or TIONIX Cloud Platform, to connect the Integration Server to the virtual infrastructure while Kaspersky Security is running, we recommend using an account that has limited rights to perform actions in the virtual infrastructure. Select the Account with restricted permissions check box and specify the settings of the user account that the Integration Server will use to connect to the virtual infrastructure during operation of Kaspersky Security.

    If the check box is cleared, during Kaspersky Security operation the Integration Server will connect to the virtual infrastructure using the same user account that is used for SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.

    In a virtual infrastructure running on the Microsoft Hyper-V platform, you can connect to the virtual infrastructure during Kaspersky Security operation only by using the same user account that is used for SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.

  4. Click the Connect button.

    The Virtual infrastructure connection settings window closes. The Wizard adds the selected virtual infrastructure objects to the list and attempts to establish a connection.

    The Wizard verifies the authenticity of all virtual infrastructure objects with which the connection is established.

    Authenticity is not verified for a Microsoft Windows Server (Hyper-V) hypervisor.

    For Keystone microservices, authenticity is verified only when using the HTTPS protocol to connect the SVM Management Wizard to the virtual infrastructure.

    To verify authenticity, the Wizard receives the SSL certificate or fingerprint of the public key from each virtual infrastructure object and verifies them.

    If the authenticity of the received certificate(s) cannot be established, the Verify certificate window opens with a message about this. Click the link in this window to view the details of the received certificate. If the certificate complies with the security policy of your organization, you can confirm the authenticity of the certificate and continue connecting to the virtual infrastructure object. The received certificate will be installed as a trusted certificate on the device where the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console is installed. If you do not consider this certificate to be authentic, click the Cancel button in the Verify certificate window to disconnect, and replace the certificate with a new one.

    If the authenticity of the open key could not be established, the Verify public key fingerprint window opens with a message about this. You can confirm the authenticity of the open key and continue the connection. The open key fingerprint will be saved on the device where the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console is installed. If you do not consider this open key to be authentic, click the Cancel button in the Verify public key fingerprint window to terminate the connection.

    If a connection cannot be established with a virtual infrastructure object, information about the connection errors is displayed in the table.

The table displays information about the virtual infrastructures to which connections are configured in the SVM Management Wizard. If SVMs are already deployed in the virtual infrastructure, the table also contains information about them. Each row of the table displays a hierarchical list of virtual infrastructure objects and the following information:

  • Name/Address

    Depending on the type of virtual infrastructure, the column may contain the following:

    • IP address or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the virtual infrastructure administration server
    • IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the hypervisor
    • IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the Keystone microservice
    • Name of the OpenStack domain
    • Name of the OpenStack project
    • Name of the SVM deployed on the hypervisor

    If SVM deployment is restricted, or if a connection with the virtual infrastructure cannot be established, the warning icon is displayed. A description of the restriction or connection error is shown in the table and in the tooltip of the warning sign.

  • State

    This column contains information on the state of the virtual infrastructure object or the SVM.

    For the hypervisor, one of the following values is specified: Enabled or Disabled. If a connection to the hypervisor cannot be established, the column shows Disconnected.

    For the Keystone microservice, the OpenStack project, and the OpenStack domain, one of the following values is specified: Enabled or Disconnected.

    One of the following values is specified for an SVM: Enabled, Disabled.

  • Protection

    This column contains the SVM version number.

  • Type

    This column contains the type of virtual infrastructure object that the SVM Management Wizard will connect to.

You can search the list of virtual infrastructure objects based on the Name/Address column. The search starts as you type in the Search field. The table displays only those virtual infrastructure objects that meet the search criteria. To reset the search results, delete the contents of the Search field.

You can update the list of virtual infrastructure objects using the Refresh button above the table. When updating a list, the Wizard verifies the SSL certificates or fingerprints of the public key, just like what happens when adding virtual infrastructure objects to the list.

You can use buttons in the Name/Address column to:

  • Remove selected virtual infrastructure from the list.

    The Integration Server continues to connect to the virtual infrastructure removed from this list, and to receive the information required for SVM operation.

  • If you cannot connect to the virtual infrastructure, open the Virtual infrastructure connection settings window to change the settings of the account used to make the connection.

    After the settings are modified, the Wizard verifies the SSL certificates or fingerprints of the public key, just like what happens when adding virtual infrastructure objects to the list.

To select infrastructure for SVM deployment:

  1. Depending on the type of the virtual infrastructure, select check boxes in the table to the left of the names of the hypervisors on which you want to deploy an SVM, or the OpenStack projects in which you want to deploy an SVM.

    You can select hypervisors or OpenStack projects that are not subject to SVM deployment restrictions.

    If SVMs are being deployed in an infrastructure based on the OpenStack platform, VK Cloud platform, or TIONIX Cloud Platform, simultaneous SVM deployment in different infrastructures is not supported. You can deploy SVMs in only one of these infrastructures at a time, or in one or more infrastructures of other types.

    The simultaneous deployment of SVMs within OpenStack projects, which are running on different Keystone microservices, is not supported. You can simultaneously deploy SVMs only in OpenStack projects that are running on the same Keystone microservice.

  2. If you want to allow concurrent deployment of multiple SVMs, select the Allow parallel deployment on N hypervisors or Allow parallel deployment on N SVMs check box (depending on the type of virtual infrastructure) and specify the number of SVMs to be deployed concurrently.

Proceed to the next step of the wizard.

Selecting the SVM image

At this step, select the file of the SVM image for deployment on the hypervisor. The SVM image file and SVM image description file (in XML format) must be placed in the same folder on the device where the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console is installed, or in the same folder on a network resource to which the user account performing the installation has read access. If you are installing the Protection Server on different types of hypervisors, the SVM image files for each type of hypervisor and the SVM image description file must be located in the same folder.

To specify the SVM image, click Browse and in the window that opens select the SVM image description file (in XML format).

After a file has been selected, the field to the left of the button displays the full path to the file and its name. The Wizard automatically selects the required SVM image file:

  • A VHDX file for deployment on a Microsoft Windows Server (Hyper-V) hypervisor.
  • An XVA file for deployment on a XenServer hypervisor or on a Numa vServer hypervisor.
  • An OVA file for deployment on a VMware ESXi hypervisor.
  • A QCOW2 file for deployment on a KVM hypervisor (including on a KVM hypervisor running on OpenStack platform, Astra Linux, VK Cloud Platform or TIONIX Cloud Platform), on a Proxmox VE hypervisor, on a R-Virtualization hypervisor, on a HUAWEI FusionCompute CNA hypervisor, on a Nutanix AHV hypervisor, or on an ALT Virtualization Server platform basic hypervisor.

The window displays the following information about the selected image:

  • Vendor is the name of the vendor of the solution that the SVM is part of.
  • Publisher is the name of the publisher of the solution that the SVM is part of.
  • Solution name is the name of the solution that the SVM is part of.
  • SVM version is the version number of the SVM image.
  • Description is a brief description of the SVM image.
  • Virtual drive size is the amount of disk space required to deploy the SVM.

The Wizard verifies the authenticity of the image. The verification results are displayed in the window as follows:

  • If the image is authentic, the Publisher field displays the value AO Kaspersky Lab.
  • If the authenticity of the image has not been verified, an error message is displayed at the top of the window, and Unknown is displayed in the Publisher field.

If the authenticity of the image has not been verified, it is recommended to use a different image for SVM deployment. To do this, you need to re-download the archive with the files necessary for SVM deployment using the Kaspersky Security Components Installation Wizard or on the Kaspersky website.

The SVM image integrity check section displays information about the results of SVM image file integrity check for each type of hypervisor. If integrity check was not performed, the Validation not performed message is displayed.

It is recommended to validate the SVM image. To do so, click the Validate button in the SVM image integrity check section. The verification results are displayed in the window as follows:

  • If the image file successfully passed the integrity check, the Valid message is displayed.
  • If the image file gets modified or corrupted while being transmitted from the publisher to the end user or if the image format is not supported, the upper part of the window shows an error message and the SVM image integrity check section displays information about the detected problem.

If an SVM image file integrity check ended with an error, it is recommended to use a different image for SVM deployment. To do this, you need to re-download the archive with the files necessary for SVM deployment using the Kaspersky Security Components Installation Wizard or on the Kaspersky website.

If the authenticity of an image has been verified and the image file integrity check completed successfully, proceed to the next step of the Wizard.

If the authenticity of an image has not been verified or an image file integrity check has not been performed or ended with an error but you accept the risk and want to use the selected SVM image, to proceed to the next step of the Wizard you need to select the check box located in the lower part of the window.

Finishing SVM deployment

This step displays information about the SVM deployment results in the virtual infrastructure.

You can use the links to open a brief report and the SVM Management Wizard log.

You can view the following information in the brief report:

  • Addresses of the hypervisors on which SVMs were deployed, or OpenStack projects, within which SVMs were deployed (depending on the type of virtual infrastructure).
  • Names of deployed SVMs.
  • Brief description of the completed stages of deployment of each SVM, including the start and end times of each stage. If an error occurred during a particular stage, the relevant information is reflected in the report.

The brief report is saved in a temporary file. To be able to use information from the report later, save the log file in a permanent storage location.

The SVM Management Wizard log saves information specified by you at every step of the wizard. If the SVM deployment process ends in an error, you can use the wizard log when contacting Technical Support.

The SVM Management Wizard log is saved on the device where the wizard was launched, in the file %LOCALAPPDATA%\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky VIISLA Console\logs\KasperskyDeployWizard_<file creation date and time>.log and does not contain account passwords. A new log file is created each time the wizard starts.

Finish the wizard.

If your virtual infrastructure uses a Microsoft Windows Server (Hyper-V) hypervisor, after SVM deployment the event log may contain an event indicating the need to update the Integration Services package on the SVM. You can ignore this notification because the Integration Services do not need to be updated to operate the SVM.
