Description

The Add-vROPSAdapterNsxt cmdlet adds an NSX Adapter for a Workload Domains NSX Manager cluster to VMware Aria Operations. The cmdlet connects to SDDC Manager using the -server, -user, and -password values:

  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to SDDC Manager
  • Validates that VMware Aria Operations has been deployed in VCF-aware mode and retrieves its details
  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to VMware Aria Operations
  • Validates that the Workload Domain is valid and then obtains the NSX Manager cluster details
  • Validates that the collector group exits in VMware Aria Operations
  • Validates that the NSX Adapter and Credentials do not already exist in VMware Aria Operations
  • Validates that the credentials do not already exist in VMware Aria Operations
  • Creates a new NSX Adapter for the Workload Domain using credentials from SDDC Manager inventory in VMware Aria Operations
  • Starts the collection of the NSX Adapter in VMware Aria Operations.
