How to Use the Virtual Appliance

You can use virtual appliance to create virtual CA User Activity Reporting Module servers for your event log collection environment using the following scenarios:

• Adding virtual servers to an existing CA User Activity Reporting Module environment - creating a mixed environment
• Creating a virtual log collection environment
• Deploying virtual CA User Activity Reporting Module servers for rapid scalability

Use VMware vSphere Client to install the virtual appliance, manually or silently. The OVF descriptor file contains the configuration parameters to configure CA User Activity Reporting Module. Enter a value for each configuration parameter during the installation.
