Configuring vConverter
ESX Servers - Advanced Properties
If you click the Advanced button on the ESX Server tab, the Advanced properties dialog
is displayed. Although you can adjust port settings through this dialog, it is best to leave
the defaults in place.
Server Info
The fields on this tab include general properties for the
ESX Servers in the system:
• Host name or IP
• Username
• Password
• Verify password
• Root password
• Verify root password
Use these options to configure individual ESX Servers:
Create User if doesn’t exist, and Enable VA feature check
boxes.
Note The username and password entered above are used
only to connect to the Service Console of the ESX Server.
If the vConverter Virtual Appliance will be used, you do
not need to enter these.
For information on the Advanced and VA Config buttons,
see the sections:
•“ESX Servers - Advanced Properties” on page 54
•“ESX Servers - VA Configuration” on page 55
Save and Install
Click Save and Install to install vConverter components
to the ESX Server. This will add the ESX Server to the
list of available targets for vConverter.
Note The vConverter components are installed to ESX servers
only if the Use virtual appliance to transfer data option is
not selected.
Uninstall
Click Uninstall to remove the components from the ESX
Server and remove it from vConverter’s list of targets.
Note The installation will fail if the credentials you enter are
invalid.
