Thus, customers skip the time-consuming and often support-intensive task of installing and configuring the appliance. This lets customers focus all their energies on trying or using your solution rather than struggling Design Principles to get it to run. Completely Encapsulated This document describes the best practices for building a virtual A virtual appliance contains all of the components required to appliance. It covers high level design principles as well as low run your solution on top of a virtualization layer. Since virtual level details for building virtual appliances ready for certification appliances are designed to run a specific solution, customers under the VMware Certified Virtual Appliance program. In turn, should not need root access to the operating system inside virtual appliances built according to these standards will allow your appliance.
