MNRSection

For SAM server with Notification Cache Publishing that is configured in the SolutionPack for VMware Smart Assurance for use with the VMware M&R UI, you need to uncomment the MNRSection and specify information for those parameters. The Failover Manager uses this information to set the Active EDAA and Active Broker in the SolutionPack for VMware Smart Assurance.

The parameters are:

• MNRHost—Is the VMware M&R Frontend server (tomcat) host.

• MNRPort—Is the VMware M&R Frontend server (tomcat) port.

• MNRProtocol—Is the VMware M&R Frontend server (tomcat) protocol.

• GatewayHost—Is the VMware M&R web-service gateway host.

• GatewayPort—Is the VMware M&R web-service gateway port.

• GatewayProtocol—Is the VMware M&R web-service gateway protocol.

  In case you have multiple SolutionPack instances, specify the SolutionPack that contains the Reports SolutionPack block.

  For each SolutionPack block (Reports, Events, Data collection) specify the values exactly how they appear in the Centralized Management page in the VMware M&R UI. To locate and copy the values, navigate to the SolutionPacks page. (Log in to the VMware UI and type http://<Frontend IP address>:58080/centralized-management. Click SolutionPacks and then click VMware Smart Assurance to locate the information.)

• Component—Is the component. For example: Reports, Events, Data collection.

• ComponentVersion—Is the component version.

• SPInstance—Is the SolutionPack instance. For example: emc-smarts

• SPVersion—Is the SolutionPack version.

• SPServer—Is the SolutionPack server distribution.

  If you have upgraded VMware M&R, check the version information after the upgrade. You might need to update version information in the MNRSection of the failover.conf file.

  For example:

  MNRSection
  {
    MNRHost = "smartslin03.emc.com";
     MNRPort = 58080;
     MNRProtocol = "http";
     GatewayHost = "smartslin03.emc.com ";
     GatewayPort = 48443;
     GatewayProtocol = "https";
     SolutionPackBlock
     {
         Component = "Reports";
          ComponentVersion ="2.1.1";
         SPInstance = "emc-smarts";
          SPVersion = "2.1.1";
          SPServer = "smartslin02.emc.com";
      }
      SolutionPackBlock
      {
         Component = "Events";
          ComponentVersion ="2.1.1";
         SPInstance = "emc-smarts";
          SPVersion = "2.1.1";
          SPServer = "smartslin02.emc.com";
      }
      SolutionPackBlock
      {
         Component = "Data collection";
          ComponentVersion ="2.1.1";
          SPInstance = "emc-smarts";
          SPVersion = "2.1.1";
          SPServer = "smartslin02.emc.com";
      }
  }
