I am trying to develop a vSphere Web Client Extension for application. After going through the vSphere Web Client Extensions Programming Guide and doing some test implementation, I have couple of questions:
- I am trying to delpoy my new plug-in package to vCenter Server and it ask me to provide a url to external server where my plug-in package zip file is hosted. Do I really need to have my own external server? If I don't have one, is it possible for me to host my zip file some where on the Virgo Server or vCenter Server?
- Is having my own external server really necessary? Can I just implement all my application logic in custom java services and add it to Virgo Server?
- Also I want to install some vib package on the ESXi host using vSphere API and here also I need the url to external server where my vib is hosted.
Is there any way I can do away with my own external server and host my plug-in package zip and vib file somewhere?
