Abstract: Techniques for declaratively deploying a virtual infrastructure management (VIM) server in a computing environment are provided. According to one set of embodiments, an installer computer system can receive a desired state definition specifying a desired state for the VIM server and a virtual infrastructure to be managed by the VIM server. The installer computer system can further install the VIM server on a target computer system in the computing environment and provide the desired state definition to the target computer system. Upon initial boot up of the VIM server on the target computer system, a service of the VIM server can automatically configure the VIM server in accordance with the desired state definition.
