NOTE:
• If a virtualization server is managed by Device Manager, do not make the virtual machines running
on that virtualization server management targets of Device Manager, except when NPIV HBA is
used in the configuration.
• If you change vMA information such as the IP address and user account, you must re-register the
vMA in Device Manager (but you do not need to delete it).
• If you change which instance of vMA manages a virtualization server, first re-register the instance
of vMA that previously managed the virtualization server, and then re-register the instance of
vMA that now manages the virtualization server (but you do not need to delete it).
VMware vCenter Server monitored by vMA
The following shows a configuration in which vMA is deployed on the virtualization server and vMA
monitors VMware vCenter Server.
Figure 15 System configuration in which vMA monitors VMware vCenter Server
To register virtualization servers in Device Manager, you need to specify vMA information such as
the IP address and user account. When you specify the vMA information, the physical environments
managed by VMware vCenter Server are registered as virtualization servers.
