After adding a new vCenter Server connection to the CA Virtual Assurance manager, add a vCenter AIM instance to manage the new vCenter Server. CA Virtual Assurance then discovers the entire vSphere environment with all its physical and virtual components, such as vCenter Server, ESX Servers, VMs, and other virtual components.
Follow these steps:
The Configuration page appears.
The right pane refreshes and displays the managed vCenter Servers, associated vCenter AIM Servers, and the AIM Instances for managed vCenter Servers.
(Add) on the vCenter AIM Servers pane toolbar.
The New vCenter AIM Server dialog appears.
The list of discovered vCenter AIM Servers appears. If you have installed the vCenter AIM on the local system, the name of the local system appears in the list too.
CA Virtual Assurance populates the vCenter Server drop-down list with the vCenter Servers listed in the vCenter Servers pane. That is, you can only manage those vCenter Servers for which your CA Virtual Assurance manager has a valid connection established.
A new AIM instance for the selected vCenter Server is added. If the instance is not in an error or stopped state, CA Virtual Assurance starts to discover the associated vSphere environment. When the discovery process is complete, you can start managing the virtual and physical resources of vSphere.
