About Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) virtualization discovery in Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) is a desktop and server virtualization platform based on the KVM hypervisor as well as the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) server operating system. It provides a RHEL-based centralized management server, RHEV-M, with a web-based interface for managing virtual machines (VMs). RHEV uses SPICE protocol and Virtual Desktop Server Manager (VDSM) along with RHEV-M.
Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager discovers RHEV virtual machines on the Linux host if the RHEV modules are installed, and configured. Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager discovers basic information about only running virtual machines.
RHEV-based Virtual Machine (RHEV) discovery pre-requisites are as follows:
VRTSsfmh
package must be present on the Linux host.RHEV modules must be installed and configured.
RHEV-based Virtual Machine (RHEV) discovery limitations are as follows:
Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager discovers only running virtual machines.
Exported storage discovery, and storage correlation is not supported.
