Discovering VxRail in OpManager

VxRail is a Hyper-converged infrastructure, provided by a cross-collaboration with Dell EMC, and VMware management solutions. It combines the compute, storage, networking, and virtualization platforms into a single consolidated interface. This simplifies and streamlines the deployment and management of virtual machines.

• You can also have a brief summary of the VMs, the interfaces associated with your vCenter, and even associate monitors to ensure its optimum functioning.
• Clicking on the device name from the VxRail summary tab, will take you to the respective VxRail cluster's snapshot page. From here, you can have comprehensive visibility into your VxRail's hosts, virtual machines, vSAN, and datastores.
