This section explains the system configuration file for registering network resources.
Point
For details on system configuration files, refer to "Appendix B Format of CSV System Configuration Files" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management) CE".
Purpose
This definition file is necessary when registering managed servers.
The system configuration file can be obtained from the ROR console.
Obtain it using the following procedure.
Procedure
Log in to the ROR console.
From the ROR console menu, select [File]-[System Configuration File]-[Download Template].
The [File Download] window is displayed.
Click the [Save] button.
Specify the storage directory and the file name.
Click the [Save] button.
The items defined in the system configuration file are delimited using commas (",").
Point
For details on the format of the system configuration file, refer to "B.2 File Format" in the "User's Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management) CE".
Edit the contents of the system configuration file shown below in underlined red text.

Point
It is necessary to create as many definitions as the number of managed servers.
The items to edit vary depending on the type of the target managed server.
Virtual PCs
Edit the items shown for server_name1 in "Format of the System Configuration File (Excerpt)".
Server management information
[VMware] VM management software information
[Hyper-V] VM management software information
VM host management information
SBC servers
Edit the items shown for server_name2 in "Format of the System Configuration File (Excerpt)".
