If you successfully collect virtualization data, you have correctly configured VCM with a separate
Windows machine as your Agent Proxy. This is the recommended configuration. If, however, you want to
use your Collector as your Agent Proxy machine, see "Configuring the Collector as an Agent Proxy" in the
online Help for detailed precedures. Be aware that this is not the recommended configuration. The
Collector already performs a consistently high level of work. Using the same machine for both your
Collector and your Agent Proxy may impact Collector performance.
