Import data sources in vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager

You can import data sources in bulk into vRealize Network Insight by using vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager.

This capability is helpful when the same SNMP or other network configuration must be used for multiple switches. Common configurations and variable parameters such as IP address must be imported in vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager and provisioned in vRealize Network Insight.

You can also import data sources when you import a vRealize Network Insight instance.

Prerequisites

Verify that you have an existing vRealize Network Insight instance.
