  2. Prepare a JSON template for the installation.
    1. In the installer ISO image, browse to the
      cli-installer/templates
       directory.

      vCenter Cloud Gateway Appliance
       either directly on an
      ESXi
       host or through a
      vCenter Server
       system.
    2. Copy a template to a working directory and edit it to include the necessary parameters.
      For more information about available template parameters, invoke the installer with the option
      --template-help
      . For example, on Windows, enter
      vcgw-deploy.exe install --template-help
      .
  3. From the command line, change directory to the
    cli-installer
     directory and run the installation prechecks.
    • For Windows OS, enter
      vcgw-deploy.exe install
      path-to-template
