vRealize Automation monitoring

“VMTurbo"
Since i started to work as a consultant back in 2007 monitoring has been part of pretty much all design, implementations and heath checks i have done. Every now and then i receive questions about how to implement monitoring for certain software and this week i received a question about monitoring the vRealize Automation (vRA)  formerly known as vCloud Automation Center (vCAC).
This blog post will describe how you can monitor the vRA:

  • Virtual Appliance
  • Identity Appliance,
  • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Manager
  • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Web services.

The blog post will not include e.g. the Distributed Execution Manager (DEM) Orchestrator, DEM Worker, vSphere Proxy Agent and the databases Microsoft SQL (MSSQL) and PostgreSQL the most likely also will be included in the vRA setup.

The following applies to (at least) vRA versions 6.1 and 6.2.
