Add the Discovered Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization AIM Instance

After adding a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization connection to the CA Virtual Assurance manager, add an AIM instance to manage the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the CA Virtual Assurance user interface from the Start menu. Click Administration, Configuration.

    The Configuration page appears.

  2. Select Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization from the Provisioning section in the left pane.
  3. Click add (Add) on the Discovered Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization AIM Instances pane toolbar.

    The Add Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization AIM Instance appears.

  4. Select the RHEV AIM Server from the drop-down list.

    The list of discovered RHEV AIM Servers appears.

  5. Select the RHEV Server from the drop-down list.

    CA Virtual Assurance populates the RHEV Server drop-down list with the RHEV Servers listed in the Registered Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization pane. You can only manage those RHEV Servers for which your CA Virtual Assurance manager has a valid connection established.

    Note: If the AIM resides on a remote system, CA Virtual Assurance must discover the system first. After discovery, the AIM server appears in the drop-down list.

  6. Click OK.

    A new AIM instance for the selected Server is added. If the instance is not in an error or in a stopped state, CA Virtual Assurance starts to discover the associated environment. When the discovery process is complete, you can start managing your Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment.
