Deploy Virtual Appliances
Cisco Secure Access requires that you deploy two Virtual Appliances (VAs) for a given site. It is critical that these VAs are not cloned or copied in any way.
Guidelines
- Set up and configure your virtual appliances manually. Do not copy or clone your virtual appliances.
Cloning your virtual appliances may disrupt syncs with Secure Access if you have to restore the VAs. - VAs do not cache any data that would require backing up. Deploy two VAs on a site in order to avoid downtime if one of the VAs is not available.
- You should understand how to deploy a virtual machine in your environments.
