Terms in this definition
- log
Text written by a component to record something that happened. VCF Operations for logs takes these in, and after integration with VCF Operations they can be searched from its Analyze page and Log Analysis widget.
- VCF Operations for logs
VCF add-on for collecting and analysing logs, deployed through fleet management as one node or a three-node cluster. Anyone moving from Aria Operations for Logs deploys it afresh rather than upgrading.
- Import
A VCF Operations workflow for adopting a vCenter that is already running, whether or not NSX is present, as a workload domain of a VCF 9.0 instance; every one of its clusters is brought in, and NSX gets deployed or joined where needed. Convergence differs by making an existing environment into a management domain instead.
- package
Workflows, actions, policies and other VCF Operations orchestrator elements are exported and imported in bundles of this kind; any dependencies are pulled in automatically, and what is inside is signed.
- Marketplace
Where VCF Operations admins browse, install and update management packs from VMware Marketplace, under Administration > Integrations.
