Adding a host for discovery of VMware servers
The Infrastructure Management Server (IMS) can be used for discovery of VMware vCenter servers, or you can optionally add a separate host that the IMS can use for discovery of vCenter servers.
The Add Host operation for discovery of VMware virtualization installs the following add-ons on the host, in addition to the managed host package:
Veritas Resiliency Platform Enablement add-on
Control Host add-on
To add a host for discovery of VMware servers
- Prerequisites
Ensure that the discovery host can communicate with the vCenter server and with the IMS.
To use a Windows host as a discovery host, a separate Windows host must first be configured as a Windows Install Host.
- Navigate
Settings (menu bar) > Infrastructure > Details View
Expand the data center > Virtualization > VMware tab.
Tip: You can also access Manage Asset Infrastructure from the Quick Actions menu.
- Click the Manage Discovery Host link to add or view discovery hosts for VMware.
- Select the + Discovery Hosts button.
- In the wizard, specify the details and click Next.
Specify the host name, username, and password
