This topic describes how to add the Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager to the BMC Server Automation environment. This topic includes the following sections:
rw,user=administrator\
Click the Instances tab.
A Connection instance is automatically created with the name Connection_<nameofVMMEnrolled>
, where <nameofVMMEnrolled>
is the name of the SCVMM server.
Note
Your user role must have the appropriate role-based access permissions to update the Connection instance, otherwise the association between the instances is not created and the server is not enrolled. Also, if a Connection instance is already associated with the Virtualization instance then a new instance is not automatically created.
This new instance contains the connection details for the SCVMM server.
You can modify the following properties for the new Connection instance:
Property | Value |
---|---|
| Enter the host name or IP address of the Microsoft VMM Server. Ensure that this URL matches with the VMM server name registered in BMC Server Automation. For example, if the VMM server name is pw-aus-bsa-qa02.sqltest.bladelogic.com then the CONNECTION_URL will be pw-aus-bsa-qa02.sqltest.bladelogic.com |
| Enter the name of an administrator of Microsoft VMM, or another user with required privileges. |
| Enter the password of the user that is mentioned in the |
You can now use the BMC Server Automation Console to Live Browse the server and access the Microsoft VMM node. See Browsing Hyper-V virtual machines.
