Integration with CA Virtual Assurance

CA Virtual Assurance is a management solution designed to manage physical and virtual systems with the SystemEDGE agent. The agent tightly integrates with CA Virtual Assurance to provide functionality that no other manager or standalone agent offers. Integration with CA Virtual Assurance lets you view SystemEDGE data and remotely configure and deploy SystemEDGE to all managed systems from the CA Virtual Assurance user interface.

When you install the agent (through CA Virtual Assurance or standalone), you specify ports and traps which are necessary to make the agent visible and manageable through the CA Virtual Assurance manager. You also specify a data directory and default port during installation. CA Virtual Assurance uses the data directory to deliver configuration changes. The data directory is appended with the default port number. For example, if you use the default port 161, the data directory would be C:\Program Files\CA\SystemEDGE\data\port161 (on Windows).
