Configuring VMware Aria Operations
Using data collected from system resources (objects), VMware Aria Operations
identifies issues in monitored system components and suggests corrective actions
you can take to fix them. VMware Aria Operations offers analytical tools to help you review
and manipulate object data to reveal hidden issues, identify trends, or drill
down to gauge the health of a single object.
Use VMware Aria Operations for operations management with application-to-storage visibility
across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. You can also view metrics
and summary monitoring data for your Google Cloud VMware Engine private clouds.
Connect your vCenter Server to an external VMware Aria Operations
If you have an existing VMware Aria Operations deployment, you can connect your private
cloud's vCenter Server to it as an endpoint. For example, you might have
an existing VMware Aria Operations instance running on an on-premises vCenter Server.
