Description

The Add-AriaNetworksNsxDataSource cmdlet adds a new NSX Manager data source to VMware Aria Operations for Networks. The cmdlet connects to SDDC Manager using the -server, -user, and -pass values:

  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to the SDDC Manager instance
  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to the VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle instance
  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to the VMware Aria Operations for Networks instance
  • Gathers NSX Manager details from SDDC Manager instance
  • Adds a new NSX Manager data source for a domain

Examples

Example 1

Add-AriaNetworksNsxDataSource -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user administrator@vsphere.local -pass VMw@re1! -sddcDomain sfo-m01 -serviceAccount svc-inv-nsx -serviceAccountPass VMw@re123!VMw@re123! -environmentName xint-env -ariaNetworksFqdn xint-net01a.rainpole.io -ariaNetworksUser admin@local -ariaNetworksPass VMw@re1!

This example creates a NSX Manager data source for a domain in the SDDC in the VMware Aria Operations for Networks instance using a service account username and password.

Example 2

Add-AriaNetworksNsxDataSource -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user administrator@vsphere.local -pass VMw@re1! -sddcDomain sfo-m01 -certificate F:\certs\sfo-m01-nsx01.cer -privatekey F:\certs\sfo-m01-nsx01.key -environmentName xint-env -ariaNetworksFqdn xint-net01a.rainpole.io -ariaNetworksUser admin@local -ariaNetworksPass VMw@re1!

This example creates a NSX Manager data source for a domain in the SDDC in the VMware Aria Operations for Networks instance using a principal identity certificate and private key.
