7. Moving VMware Devices Between Collectors

If you move a VMware device to a different collector, you must follow one of these procedures to force the changes to take effect:

  • Restart the collector daemons. To do this, go to Settings > Daemons, and then click Restart in the row for each of these daemons:

    • zenvmwaremodeler

    • zenvmwareperf

    • zenvmwareevents

    Note

    Alternatively, as user zenoss, enter the following commands to stop and then restart these Zenoss daemons:

    zenvmwaremodeler restart
zenvmwareperf restart
zenvmwareevents restart

    OR

  • Navigate to the page for the organizer that represents the VMware endpoint (for example, Devices/VMware, myEndpoint), and then select Manage > Push changes from the page menu.
