Organization VDC Details Test
An Organization vDC (Org vDC) is a subset or an allocation from the Provider vDC (PvDC). The resources that are provided by the PvDC are consumed by the Org vDC. Organization vDCs inherit the resource types - i.e., CPU, Memory and Storage types - from the Provider vDC. Whenever an Org vDC is created within vCloud Director, a Resource Pool is then subsequently created within vSphere under the PvDC Resource Pool (if mapped correctly should be created under the cluster or root resource pool).
This test reports the current status of each Org vDC on the vCloud Director, reveals the enabled and disabled ones, and indicates the resource allocation and resource usage of every Org vDC. This way, you can quickly identify those vDCs that contain resource-intensive VMs or vApps.
Target of the test : A vCloud Director Cell
Agent deploying the test : An internal/remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for each Org vDC.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
|
Test Period |
How often should the test be executed. |
|
Host |
The host for which the test is being configured. |
|
Port |
Specify the port at which the specified host listens in the Port text box. By default, this is NULL. |
|
vCloud Director User |
Specify the name of the user with Administrator access to the target vCloud Director Cell. |
|
vCloud Director Pass |
Enter the password of the specified vCloud Director User. |
|
Confirm password |
Confirm the password by retyping it here. |
|
SSL |
By default, the vCloud Director Cell is SSL-enabled. Accordingly, the SSL flag is set to Yes by default. |
