Targeting the ESXi server

Add a ESXi target system in Bravura Security Fabric (Manage the System > Resources > Target systems):

  • ID is a unique value, for example – ESXI

  • Type is VMWare Hypervisor

  • Address uses the following options:

    Server The name or the IP address of the ESXi server.

    (key: server)

    Validate the server’s certificate when connecting Determines whether to validate the server’s security certificate for SSL connections. Default is "true".

    (key: checkCert)

    The address is written in the following syntax:

    {server=<server>[;checkCert=<true|false>];}

    For example:

    {server=10.0.7.2;checkCert=false;}

  • The target systems’ administrative credentials are the login credentials for the ESXi server.

    Appropriate privileges are required for the login; for example, the connector will only list the resources that the supplied credentials can view.

The full list of target parameters is explained in Target System Options .
