Are you using Avaya Virtualized Application Manager (AVAM)

[micwood]

The Avaya Virtualized Application Manager (AVAM) is a software deployment utility that was introduced to deploy Avaya applications into Customer provided VMware Environments. It’s an alternative deployment tool to VMware tools such as vCenter or the vSphere Client.

The System Management team would like to understand how much this tool is being used in order to make product lifecycle decisions.

Question: How often do you see AVAM being used to deploy Avaya application OVA’s in customer provided VMware environments (never, sometimes or frequently)?

Please respond to this Sticky Thread or send an email response to: Mike DiSaia (disaiam@avaya.com) and John Cato (jcato@avaya.com). The lack of any response will be received as the field is not using the AVAM utility.

One issue with customer VM environments that you are going to see is similar to our. The Telecom team does not manage the VM environment and the team that does that is not crazy about us taking Vcenter like control of their environment. It is a nice option but hope it never becomes mandatory.

This is the very first I've heard of this tool. Is it still available?

Maybe you need to ask someone from the outside to help you? I never get deep into these things, simply because I have no sufficient experience or knowledge to perform these things on my own. For any serious tasks like etl migration services, etc. I ask professionals to do it. So maybe you could just ask them for help?
