In this video we are going to see how to add a VMWare infrastructure provider  to your manageIQ environment . When you first login into the appliance you are brought into the Dashboard screen .

Go to Infrastructure -- Providers 

Click on Configuration -- Infrastructure providers -- Configuration -- Discover Infrastructure provider

In this case we will choose VMWare

 

Even though I know the exact IP Address of the providers I am going to type in that as the IP Range , because through discover you get a more accurate information and then you just click add.

 

You will have a message Discovery Successfully Initiated.  Next things I need to add is credentials to it so that I can refresh all of its relationships to it all of its hosts and clusters and what its VMs are. Now I will click on them .

So I will click on the provider 

I will go to configuration -- Edit this infrastructure provider
