Abstract
An example method of configuring a cluster network for an application management system having virtual machines (VMs) executing on a virtualization layer in a cluster of hosts connected to a physical network, wherein the application management system is integrated with the virtualization layer, the method including: deploying, by a virtualization management server, a master server of the application management system prior to configuration of a cluster network that connects the VMs, the master server connected to the virtualization management server by a management network isolated from the cluster network; configuring, by the master server in cooperation with a network manager, the cluster network to connect the VMs; and connecting, by the master server in cooperation with the network manager, the cluster network to an edge node configured to support external ingress/egress for the cluster network.
