You can also view information for each host in your deployment. The Cluster tab on the
vRealize Automation management console includes a Distributed Deployment Information table that
displays the following information:
n
A list of all nodes in your deployment
n
The host name for the node. The host name is given as a fully qualified domain name.
n
The time since the host last replied to the management console. Nodes for IaaS components report
availability every three minutes and nodes for virtual appliances report every nine minutes.
n
The vRealize Automation component type. Identifies whether the node is a virtual appliance or an
IaaS server.
Figure 3‑1. Distributed Deployment Information table
You can use this table to monitor activity in your deployment. For example, if the Last Connected column
indicates a host has not connected recently, that can be an indication of a problem with the host server.
Log Collection
You can create a zip file that contains log files for all hosts in your deployment. For more information, see
Collect Logs for Clusters and Distributed Deployments.
Removing Nodes from the Table
When you remove a host from your deployment, remove the corresponding node from the Distributed
Deployment Information table to optimize log collection times.
Collect Logs for Clusters and Distributed Deployments
You can create a zip file that includes all log files for servers in your deployment.
The Distributed Deployment Information table lists the nodes from which log files are collected.
