In this recipe, we explore how to use Orchestrator to expand the capabilities of vRealize Operations Manager (vROps).
You will need a vROps installation collecting data from vCenter. You also need to have Orchestrator connected to the same vCenter.
You need to download the vROps plugin from Solution Exchange (see the introduction to this chapter). You may need to create a free account to access the download.
If you are new to vROps, check out the video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aN85uCtPtJ4 .
This recipe is split into multiple sections. To reduce confusion about what plugin is which, I will talk about the vROps plugin, meaning the plugin that goes into vROps and the vROps package that went into Orchestrator.
