Problem: Deployment of the vApp takes a long time on top of existing storage.

Cause: The time required to deploy a Virtual Appliance is entirely dependent on VMware and on the speed of the VM Datastore.

Solution: Deploy the Axcient Virtual Appliance on top of a faster VM Datastore.

Before deploying the vApp, please refer to the Axcient Virtual Appliance System Requirements Guide.
