Create a load balancer

Before you begin:

• Synchronize your virtual datacenters (including VMs, networks, firewalls, firewall rules, and load balancers)
• If required by your provider, create firewalls for your VMs to allow your load balancers to access the VMs
• In Azure make sure that your VMs belong to availability sets

To create a load balancer:

1. Go to Virtual datacenters → select a virtual datacenter → Network → Load balancers 
   1. For vCloud, select All virtual datacenters → Network → Load balancers → Region

2. Click the + add button and complete the following dialogs according to your cloud provider's documentation
