Prerequisites for adding hosts
Before you add hosts to Veritas Resiliency Platform for discovery and monitoring by an Infrastructure Management Server (IMS), ensure that the following prerequisites are met. Prerequisites include general prerequisites for all hosts and additional prerequisites for Linux or Windows systems.
General prerequisites for adding host assets:
Ensure that the IMS can communicate with the host.
Ensure that the time difference between the system clocks on the IMS and host is no more than 90 minutes. The managed hosts must report synchronized universal time clock time (UC/UTC).
If a CSV file is used to add hosts, ensure that it uses the correct syntax.
Additional prerequisites for Linux systems:
In order to install the host package while adding the Linux host, ensure that the PasswordAuthentication field is set to yes in the
/etc/ssh/sshd_config file
on the host.
Additional prerequisites for Windows systems:
You must have at least one Windows Install host already added to the IMS, where you want to add the Windows host. If you do not have any Windows Install host associated with the IMS, you first need to add a Windows Install host, and then you can add any number of Windows hosts using the Windows Install host.
If you install the host package using the web console, you should be a domain user having administrative privileges on the host. If you install the host package manually, then you need to be a local user having administrative privileges on the host.
The Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service must be running.
