You can export waves of VMware vRealize Network Insight discovered applications to HCX for migration as Mobility Groups. HCX integration with vRealize Network Insight is available through API calls.
In many cases, the relationships, dependencies, and boundaries among application workloads is complex, and knowing what application to migrate and in which order can be challenging. vRealize Network Insight uses Application Discovery and Dependency Analytics to identify migration waves. From this information, vRealize Network Insight defines Application Groups that are then exported using public APIs to HCX as established Mobility Groups.
Prerequisites
Public APIs are available for exporting vRealize Network Insight Application Groups to HCX as Mobility Groups. To view the HCX API for creating Mobility Groups, log in to access the HCX API documentation: https://hcx_ip_or_fqdn/hybridity/docs. Navigate to
in the documentation.Procedure
Results
The workloads included in the API are created and migrated as Mobility Groups in HCX.
