Pure Protect - My License is Active, What Next?

Now that you have your Pure Protect License for either Premium Edition or Community Edition, what is the next step?

The first step, and commonly missed, is to add yourself the "DRaaS Global Admin" in Pure1 IAM.  To do so, choose the Application Switcher (next to your user profile in the top right), and choose IAM

Once their, add to your username the "DRaaS Global Admin" role.  A user with existing Pure1 Admin privileges maybe required to perform this action. 

Once complete, you will see "Create Deployment" page under "DRaaS | Deployments" on the left navigation bar.

I advise reading through the quick start guide on Pure1 Support portal to get an idea of the few questions and pieces of information needed to be successful.  These include IP and network information for the appliance, ensuring firewall ports are opened for the appliance, vcenter service account credentials, and if you are using AWS, credentials and network information.

Reach out with feedback or questions via this community portal or your Pure account representatives!
