Operating Other Plug-ins in Batches

AOM will support interconnection with other types of plug-ins. You can install, upgrade, uninstall, start, stop, and restart plug-ins in batches.

Currently, ICAgents are supported. An ICAgent is a plug-in for collecting metrics and logs. ICAgent collects data at an interval of 1 minute. This interval cannot be changed.

Procedure

In the navigation pane, choose Settings. The Global Configuration page is displayed.
In the navigation pane, choose Collection Settings > VM Access.
On the VM Access page, select one or more hosts and click Plug-in Batch Operation.

In the displayed dialog box, select an operation type, set the plug-in information, and click OK.
