“Congure the vSphere Agent,” on page 101.
Configure the vSphere Agent
You can use the proxy agent utility to modify the initial congurations that are encrypted in the
VRMAgent.exe.config le agent conguration le, or to change the machine deletion policy for virtualization
platforms.
Congure the vSphere agent in preparation for creating and using vSphere endpoints to be used in
vRealize Automation blueprints.
N Some portions of the le are encrypted, while others are not. For example, the serviceConguration
section of VRMAgent.exe.config is not encrypted.
