Register Supervisor with Tanzu Mission Control

Supervisor ships with a vSphere Namespace dedicated for Tanzu Mission Control. To register Supervisor with Tanzu Mission Control, install the TMC Agent in the vSphere Namespace and complete the registration process using TMC.

Complete this procedure to install the TMC Agent on Supervisor. Note that this procedure requires you to use the vSphere Client and TMC web interface simultaneously.

Using the vSphere Plugin for kubectl, authenticate with Supervisor.

kubectl vsphere login --server=IP-ADDRESS --vsphere-username USERNAME

Switch context to the Supervisor, for example:
```
kubectl config use-context 10.199.95.59
```
Run the following command to list the namespaces.
```
kubectl get ns
```
The vSphere Namespace for TMC is named svc-tmc-cXX (where XX is a number). Verify that it exists and is active.
