Advanced Configuration Example

The monitoring criteria for this configuration are:

• 2 vCenter Servers should be connected
• For vCenter Server №1 (Production systems):

• All clusters, hosts and VMs should be monitored
• High-availability data collection backend is a requirement

• For vCenter Server №2 (Development/Test systems):  

• All clusters and hosts should be monitored
• Virtual Machines should not be monitored
• High-availability data collection backend is not required
• Collection interval of 10 minutes is sufficient

This example will illustrate a more advanced Veeam back-end configuration, requiring the use of multiple Collectors, monitoring groups, and customizing collection settings.

This example assumes that the following sections in the Installation Guide have been followed:

• Single-server installation (to provision the VE Service, UI and one Collector)
• Collector-only installation (repeated twice, to provision two additional Collector servers)
