The explanation in this subsection assumes that the user has the following VMware environment:

Monitored host

Virtual environment software: VMware ESX Server

Physical server host name: vm-host

Login user name^#: user01

Login password^#: pass01

Domain name: None

#

The user must be able to connect to VMware ESX Server from a management tool such as VMware Infrastructure Client

PFM - Agent host

OS: Windows Server 2003

Login user name: vmuser

Login password: vmpass

Domain name: vmdomain

(2) Setup example

A command execution example for setting up an instance environment follows.

<Enter>: Enter key must be pressed.

1 to 13: Number of the corresponding step in the setup procedure.

To set up an instance environment:

Execute the jpcconf inst setup command.
vm-host, which is the host name of the monitored physical server, is specified here.
If the host name of the monitored physical server is specified as the instance name, that host name becomes the default value of VM_Host.

Set up VM_Type.
Since the default value (vmware) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.

Set up VM_Host.
Since the default value (vm-host) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value. If you specified a character string that is different from the host name of the monitored physical server in Step 1, specify a host name here.

Set up Security.
Since the default value (1) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value. If VMware has been set up not to use SSL for connection, enter 0.

Set up Port.
Since the default value (443 if SSL is used; 80 if SSL is not used) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value. If a port number to be used for connection purposes has been explicitly set up in VMware, enter that port number.

Set up UserID.
Enter the user name user01 to be used for connection and press the Enter key.

Set up Password.
Enter the password pass01 to be used for connection and press the Enter key. The system will ask you to re-enter the password for confirmation purposes. Re-enter pass01 and then press the Enter key.

Note:

The entered character strings are not displayed on the screen.

Set up Domain.
Because this setting is not used in VMware, press the Enter key without entering a value.

Set up HostUserID.
Enter the PFM - Agent host's vmuser user name to be used for connection and press the Enter key.

Set up HostPassword.
Enter the PFM - Agent host's vmpass password to be used for connection and press the Enter key. The system will ask you to re-enter the password for confirmation purposes. Re-enter the vmpass password and then press the Enter key.

Note:

The entered character strings are not displayed on the screen.

Set up HostDomain.
Enter the PFM - Agent host's vmdomain domain name and press the Enter key.

Set up Log_Size.
Since the default value (16 megabytes) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.

Set up Store Version.
Since the default value (Store version 2.0) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.
