Deployment Lifecycle › Register a Service

Register a Service

You can register for the monitoring service from the service portal. This request form captures the required details for estimating the resource requirement for the monitoring service that is to be provisioned.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the service portal with administrator credentials.

   The home page opens.

2. Click Requests.

   A new page opens with the list of services.

3. Click Register Services under Service Administration.

   A new page opens with the list of services to register.

4. Click Monitoring Service.
5. Select Deploy Monitoring Service-Central.

   By default, the form opens with the Automatic Deployment option.

   Important! The Deploy Monitoring Service-Central is a one-time task. The system does not allow you to redeploy the service.

6. Complete the form and Submit to deploy the OVF templates automatically.
7. Clear the check box to deploy the OVF templates manually using the VMware vSphere Client and Submit.

   The predefined Manage Service Offerings (MSO) workflow starts automatically. The process instantiates, configures, activates, and tests the monitoring components and emails you the operation results. The system deploys the templates to the central location. You are notified that the monitoring service offering is available to be offered.
