-
-
Virtual environment software: VMware ESXi
-
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 ESXi from a management tool such as VMware vSphere Client
-
- PFM - RM host
-
-
OS: Windows
-
Login user name: vmuser
-
Login password: vmpass
-
Domain name: vmdomain
-
(2) Example of setting up an instance environment
A command execution example for setting up an instance environment follows.
C:\Program Files\Hitachi\jp1pc\tools>jpcconf inst setup -key RMVM -inst vmware1 ...1 VM_Type [vmware] :<Enter> ...2 Interval [300] :<Enter> ...3 Offset [10] :<Enter> ...4 Std_Category [Y] :<Enter> ...5 Cpu_Category [Y] :<Enter> ...6 Memory_Category [Y] :<Enter> ...7 Disk_Category [Y] :<Enter> ...8 Network_Category [Y] :<Enter> ...9 HostUserID [] :vmuser<Enter> ...10 HostPassword [] :vmpass<Enter> ...11 Re-enter :vmpass<Enter> HostDomain [] :vmdomain<Enter> ...12 SSH_Type [putty] :<Enter> ...13 SSH_Client [] :<Enter> ...14 Log_Size (MB) [16] :<Enter> ...15 UseVcpuMax [N] :<Enter> ...16 KAVE05080-I Creating an instance environment. (servicekey=RMVM, inst=vmware1) KAVE05081-I An instance environment has been created. (servicekey=RMVM, inst=vmware1)
- Legend:
-
<Enter>: Enter key must be pressed.
1 through 16: Number of the corresponding step in the setup procedure.
To set up an instance environment:
-
Execute the jpcconf inst setup command.
Specify any name as the instance name.
-
Set up VM_Type.
Since the default value (vmware) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.
-
Set up Interval.
Since the default value (300) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.
-
Set up Offset.

-
Set up HostDomain.
Enter vmdomain as the name of the domain that the PFM - RM host belongs to, and then press the Enter key.
-
Set up SSH_Type.
Press the Enter key without entering any value because this item is not used by VMware.
-
Set up SSH_Client.
Press the Enter key without entering any value because this item is not used by VMware.
-
Set up Log_Size.
Since the default value (16 megabytes) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.
-
Set up UseVcpuMax.
Since the default value (N) will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.
(3) Example of setting up monitoring targets
The following shows an example of executing a command to set up a monitoring target.
C:\Program Files\Hitachi\jp1pc\tools>jpcconf target setup -key RMVM -inst vmware1 -target vm-host ...1 Target Host [] :vm-host <Enter> ...2 VM_Host [] :<Enter> ...3 Security [1] :<Enter> ...4 Port [0] :<Enter> ...5 UserID :user01<Enter> ...6 Password [] :pass01<Enter> ...7 Re-enter :pass01<Enter> Domain [] :<Enter> ...8 Private_Key_File [] :<Enter> ...9 KAVE05361-I The monitoring target is now being added. (servicekey=RMVM, inst=vmware1, target=vm-host) KAVE05362-I The monitoring target has been added. (servicekey=RMVM, inst=vmware1, target=vm-host)
- Legend:
-
<Enter>: Enter key must be pressed.
1 through 9: Number of the corresponding step in the setup procedure.
To set up a monitoring target (as in the above example):
-
Execute the jpcconf target setup command.
Specify vm-host, which is the host name of a physical server, as the name of a monitoring target.
-
Set Target Host.
Enter vm-host, which is the host name of a physical server, and then press the Enter key.
-
Set VM_Host.
Since the Target Host value will be used, press the Enter key without entering any value.

- Note:
-
The password string that you enter is not displayed.
-
Set Domain.
Press the Enter key without entering any value because this item is not used by VMware.
-
