Single-Server Installation
In the single-server installation scenario, the following Veeam MP for VMware components are installed on a single Management Server:
- Veeam Virtualization Extensions Service
- Veeam Virtualization Extensions UI
- Veeam VMware Collector
To deploy Veeam MP for VMware, follow these steps:
- Configure the Management Server to allow Proxying.
- Install VE Service, Veeam UI, Veeam VMware Collector and import Veeam management packs using the unified installer.
The Veeam UI will make recommendations for the number of Veeam Collector servers required, when you connect to your vCenter Server. If your infrastructure requires more than one Collector server, you can install additional instances of the Veeam Collector component to distribute the monitoring load and allow high-availability monitoring. To do that, perform the steps described in Collector-Only Installation on additional servers.
After completing the above steps, you can customize and tune Veeam MP for VMware for your particular monitoring requirements. To accomplish this, see the Operations Guide.
