About Thick Provisioning
Thick provisioning occurs when an OVA file is deployed on your ESX/ESXi server. This
type of provisioning pre-allocates all the hard disk space for the virtual appliance.
Installing with vSphere
To perform a fresh install of the SonicWALL Email Security Virtual Appliance using the
vSphere client, perform the following steps:
1. Download the es_vm_7.2.x.xxxx.ova file from MySonicWALL to a system that is
accessible to your ESX/ESXi server.
Note: Do not rename the OVA files.
2. Launch vSphere and use it to log on to your ESX/ESXi server.
