Loading and configuring PATROL for VMware vSphere


Before you can configure and use PATROL for VMware vSphere, you must load its KM files into a PATROL console so that the product's applications, commands, and parameters appear in the PATROL console. PATROL for VMware vSphere KM files for the VMware environment lists the KM files in this product that you can load.

For more information about loading the KM, see Loading KMs.

If you want your KMs to be loaded at startup and continue collecting data even when there is no console running, preload the .km files or .kml file on the appropriate PATROL Agents. A preloaded KM is a KM that is loaded by the PATROL Agent at startup and runs as long as the PATROL Agent runs. For more information, see Preloading KMs.

If you want to remove a KM from being displayed in your PATROL console, you can unload its corresponding application classes (.km files) as described in Unloading KMs.
