Add a Domain Server or Exchange Server to the Manager

You can add a Microsoft Active Directory Domain Controller or Exchange Server connection to the manager using the user interface.

Follow these steps:

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

   The Configuration page appears.

2. Select Microsoft Active Directory and Exchange Server from the Provisioning section in the left pane.
3. Click (Add) on the Servers pane toolbar.

   The Add Server dialog appears.

4. Enter the required connection data (server name, user, password, mode, technology), specify the preferred AIM, enable Managed Status.
5. Click OK.

   CA Virtual Assurance validates the submitted connection data and tries to establish a connection to the server.

   When the network connection is established successfully, the Server is added to the top right pane with a green status icon.

   Note: If the connection fails, the Validation Failed dialog appears. If you click Yes, CA Virtual Assurance adds the Server to the list with a red status icon indicating a connection failure. If you click No, nothing is added.
