Procedure
1 Navigate to the name or IP address of the node that will be the master node of
vRealize Operations Manager.
The setup wizard appears, and you do not need to log in to vRealize Operations Manager.
2 Click New Installation.
3 Click Next.
4 Enter and conrm a password for the admin user account, and click Next.
Passwords require a minimum of 8 characters, one uppercase leer, one lowercase leer, one digit, and
one special character.
The user account name is admin by default and cannot be changed.
5 Select whether to use the certicate included with vRealize Operations Manager or to install one of your
own.
a To use your own certicate, click Browse, locate the certicate le, and click Open to load the le in
the Certicate Information text box.
b Review the information detected from your certicate to verify that it meets the requirements for
vRealize Operations Manager.
6 Click Next.
7 Enter a name for the master node.
For example: Ops-Master
8 Enter the URL or IP address for the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server with which the cluster will
synchronize.
For example: time.nist.gov
9 Click Add.
Leave the NTP blank to have vRealize Operations Manager manage its own synchronization by having
all nodes synchronize with the master node and replica node.
10 Click Next, and click Finish.
The administration interface appears, and it takes a moment for vRealize Operations Manager to nish
adding the master node.
What to do next
After creating the master node, you have the following options.
n
Create and add data nodes to the unstarted cluster.
n
Create and add remote collector nodes to the unstarted cluster.
n
Click Start vRealize Operations Manager to start the single-node cluster, and log in to nish
conguring the product.
The cluster might take from 10 to 30 minutes to start, depending on the size of your cluster and nodes.
Do not make changes or perform any actions on cluster nodes while the cluster is starting.
