2.4 Discovering Registered VM Hosts
When you first install the VM Client, it is not aware of all of the possible registered VM hosts in the
virtualization grid that you log in to. The discovery process finds all hosts that have a supported
hypervisor installed and running on them.
You should discover these hosts before continuing to use the product. You should discover hosts
before attempting to discover VMs so that any VMs belonging to a particular host can be
discovered.
Before discovering the VMware technology-based hosts, ensure that the appropriate policies have
been configured in the Orchestrate Development Client. For more information on configuring the
policies, see “
Configuring Policies for VM Provisioning Adapters ” in the PlateSpin Orchestrate 2.0
Virtual Machine Management Guide .
To discover the existing registered VM hosts:
1 In the VM Client , click Actions > Discover Hosts .
