PSC/vCSA on Workstation 15

Hi,

did someone deploy with success using any deployment method and model PSC/vCSA 6.5/6.7 on Workstation 15?

Deployment of PSC/vCSA 6.5 on Workstation 14 worked great in any model, but I can't deploy it now on Workstation 15.

I've read this articles already:

vCenter 6 VCSA External PSC in VMware Workstation - Cloudy Future

Thank You in advance

Just open the ovf with  workstation, it now does it for you. You can pick the type you want

I've try this dozens of times in several combinations. First phase - OVF deployment and addressing is usualy done correctly, but the second phase - configuration in VAMI finishes with an error on 5% of progress bar.

So, the key part I forgot is, are you using something other than bridged networking. If your using NAT or host only for connections to dns or something similar you have to change the network type after it deploys. They need to add that part to the deployment wizard

My workaround before this was to deploy the appliances to an nested esxi host, then use workstations tool to download them into workstation.
