Setting VMware Tag
- Set the tag.vmware-tag custom properties for a specific device group (e.g., tag.vmware-tag=office-istanbul).
Define property key for device group
- Configure the /etc/hosts file for VMware DNS settings.
Next:
- Navigate to Administration > System Configuration Manager > VMware Integration.
- Select the action Add VMware.
- Enter the hostname, username, and password.
- Save.
Add new VMware
- Click on Synchronize All action.
- Once completed, all VMware devices within the assigned tag will be imported into Kron PAM in bulk.
