Prerequisites
Please ensure that the following prerequisites are addressed for the integration of Rafay with the Netris controller.
Network Connectivity¶
The Rafay Controller must be able to reach the Netris Controller so that it can interact with it programmatically. Please make sure that API credentials for the Netris controller need to be configured in Rafay for authentication and authorization.
Data Center Naming Consistency¶
Netris and Rafay must use identical names for the datacenter. Netris refers to this as "Site Name" and Rafay refers to it as "Datacenter".
| System | Field |
|---|---|
| Netris | Site Name |
| Rafay | Data Center Name |
The image below shows the "M3-1K" datacenter in Rafay mapped to the identically named site in Netris.
Server Inventory Sync¶
All GPU servers must be imported into Rafay's Inventory from Netris.
When servers are imported into Rafay, please ensure that the device inventory entries include the following:
- Same server name as Netris.
- A tag mapping the ’netris-id’ in Netris inventory.
- A tag mapping the netris-template in Netris
Hypervisor enabled GPU Servers¶
For hypervisor-enabled GPU servers (self service end user VMs), ensure the following tags are configured. This ensures that automatic hypervisor onboarding into tenant networks will be performed when VMs are launched by users.
