A Global Manager imports topology from configured underlying VMware Smart Assurance domains. The topology sources are specified in the Global Manager’s ics-default.xml file located in the BASEDIR/smarts/conf/ics directory. A Global Manager synchronizes its topology whenever any of the following occurs:
-
The Global Manager is started.
-
A reconfiguration to an underlying server is required.
-
The analysis domain is reconnected after a connection loss or a restart.
-
The analysis domain performs a full or incremental discovery, or rediscovers an object; or a manual discovery is initiated.
