Creating the
vRealize Operations Manager Master
Node 2
All vRealize Operations Manager installations require a master node.
This chapter includes the following topics:

About the vRealize Operations Manager Master Node
The master node is the required, initial node in your vRealize Operations Manager cluster.
In single-node clusters, administration and data are on the same master node. A multiple-node cluster
includes one master node and one or more data nodes. In addition, there might be remote collector nodes,
and there might be one replica node used for high availability.
The master node performs administration for the cluster and must be online before you congure any new
nodes. In addition, the master node must be online before other nodes are brought online. If the master node
and replica node go oine together, bring them back online separately. Bring the master node completely
online rst, and then bring the replica node online. For example, if the entire cluster were oine for any
reason, you would bring the master node online rst.

Run the Setup Wizard to Create the Master Node
All vRealize Operations Manager installations require a master node. With a single node cluster,
administration and data functions are on the same master node. A multiple-node
vRealize Operations Manager cluster contains one master node and one or more nodes for handling
additional data.
Prerequisites
n
Create a node by deploying the vRealize Operations Manager vApp.
n
After it is deployed, note the fully qualied domain name (FQDN) or IP address of the node.
n
If you plan to use a custom authentication certicate, verify that your certicate le meets the
requirements for vRealize Operations Manager. See “Custom vRealize Operations Manager
Certicates,” on page 16.
