“How to monitor NSX environment with vRealize Operations – Part II – Result” via vtechguru.com
Dear Reader, this is the second part of the vROPS for NSX post. In the earlier Part I post I have discussed about the installation and configuration of the PAK file in vROPs environment. In this part I am going to discuss the results of the configuration, i.e, what information we get from the solution.
