A management pack is the part of the solution that you install. After you install the management pack, you configure an adapter instance.
Prerequisites
Download the PAK file for VMware Aria Operations Management Pack for Flowgate from VMware Marketplace. Save that PAK file to a temporary folder on your local system.
Verify that the time and date on the vCenter Manager host machine are set correctly. The time and date must be within 1800 seconds of the time and date on the Flowgate Server, so that the Management Pack for Flowgate can collect metrics. For instructions about setting your Network Time Protocol, see KB article 2012069 Configuring Network Time Protocol (NTP) on ESX/ESXi servers using the vSphere Client.
Procedure
Results
The installer creates the Flowgate folder and Flowgate.jar file under the/usr/lib/vmware-vcops/user/plugins/inbound folder.
