The page for adding a VMware ESX application monitor appears.

{
IP Address—Enter the IP address of the VMware ESX server to be monitored. APM automatically
checks the IP address and associates the application monitor with the VMware ESX server if it
is already managed in the IMC platform. To monitor a VMware ESX server that is already
managed in the IMC platform, you can also click Select and select the VMware ESX server in
the Select Devices dialog box. For information about selecting a VMware ESX server, see " 2
Quick start ."
{
Name—Enter a unique application monitor name. H3C recommends naming the application
monitor as Application name_VMware ESX server IP address.
{
Use Template—Select Enable or Disable from the list.
{
Template—Click the Configure link next to the Template field to select an existing template.
The Template field is automatically populated with the name of the selected template. For more
information about configuring application templates, see " 2 Quick start ." This field appears
only when you select Enable from the Use Template list.
{
Description—Enter a description for the application monitor.
{
Polling Interval (min)—Select a polling interval for the application monitor. Available options
include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, and 30. The default polling interval is 5 minutes. A shorter polling
interval provides more accurate real-time data but consumes more system resources. This field is
available only when you select Disable from the Use Template list.
{
Username/Password—Enter the username and password of the VMware ESX administrator.
The fields are available only when you select Disable from the Use Template list.
{
Contact—Enter the contact information, such as name, email address, and telephone number.
The default is the username of the operator who created the application monitor. This field is
available only when you select Disable from the Use Template list.
{
Related Applications—Click Add next to this filed. On the Select Application dialog box that
appears, select the application that the VMware ESX server depends on.
− Enter the complete or part of the application monitor name in the Search field at the top of
the page, and click Search.
− Select the application that the VMware ESX server depends on.
− Click OK.
Operating system applications, such as Windows, AIX, SCO UNIX, FreeBSD, OpenBSD,
HP-UX, Solaris, Mac OS, and Linux, cannot be selected. Operators can view all dependencies
of the application in the dependency topology.
{
Detect Application—Select this parameter if you want to enable application detection. APM
verifies the application connectivity by using the previous parameter settings, and adds the
application monitor only when it can connect to the application. If you do not select this
parameter, APM adds the application monitor without verifying the application connectivity.
