Figure 1-9 System configuration in which vMA monitors VMware ESX Server that is in a different
physical environment
In
Figure 1-8, when you specify the vMA information, virtualization server A is registered in
Device Manager. In
Figure 1-9, when you specify the vMA information, virtualization server B is
registered in Device Manager.
CAUTION:
•
If you change the information (such as IP address and user account) of the CIMOM interface for vMA,
you must re-register the vMA in Device Manager (but you do not need to delete it).
• If you change which instance of vMA manages a virtualization server, first re-register the instance of vMA
that previously managed the virtualization server, and then re-register the instance of vMA that now
manages the virtualization server (but you do not need to delete it).
• Configuration in which VMware vCenter Server is monitored by vMA
To register virtualization servers in Device Manager, you need to specify the information (such
as IP address and user account) about the CIMOM interface for vMA. When you specify the
vMA information, the physical environments managed by VMware vCenter Server are
registered as virtualization servers.
Figure 1-10 shows an example of a system configuration in which VMware vCenter Server is
monitored by vMA.
