The Server Manager builds a topology of the deployed vCD components. The topology objects represent the vCD deployed components, their relationships, and their association with tenants and virtual infrastructure.

Note: Refer Domain Managers Support Matrix guide, to know the supported version of vCD, qualified in this release for Server Manager.
vCD topology objects include:
  • VirtualAppliance: A vApp is an application container containing one or more virtual machines.
  • OrganizationVDC: Organization vDC allocates resources to organization. An organization vDC is partitioned from a provider vDC.
  • ProviderVDC: A Provider VDC is a collection of compute, memory, and storage resources from one vCenter server. A Provider VDC provides resources to organization VDCs.
  • Tenant: User of cloud computing service, who shares resources and cost of underlying hardware resources like compute, storage and network with other users.
  • CloudController: Represents vCloud Director, which is deployment, automation and management software for virtual infrastructure resources in multi-tenant cloud environments.
