1 1 Introduction Data Center Connector for vsphere includes the components that help you discover and import your virtual infrastructure using McAfee epolicy Orchestrator (McAfee epo ). You can also view the virtualization properties and protection status of your virtual machines. Contents VM security management made easy Components and what they do VM security management made easy Data Center Connector for vsphere discovers and imports both running and stopped machine instances from VMware vcenter to the McAfee epo server. This product integrates the management feature of McAfee epo with the VMware vcenter server, and displays the imported virtual machines and their protection status on McAfee epo. Components and what they do Each component performs specific functions to discover and manage your VMs. epolicy Orchestrator Allows you to register a VMware vcenter account with McAfee epo, so that it establishes a connection with VMware vcenter, which manages the ESXi servers. Data Center Connector for vsphere Integrates the management and automation feature of McAfee epo to discover and manage your guest VMs. Hypervisor (ESXi) Allows multiple operating systems to run concurrently on a hosted system. The hypervisor is a virtual operating platform that manages the execution of the guest operating systems. ESXi are embedded hypervisors for servers that run directly on server hardware, without requiring an additional underlying operating system. VMware vcenter Console that manages the ESXi servers, which host the guest VMs that require protection. Virtual Machines (VMs) Completely isolated guest operating system installation within a normal host operating system, which supports both virtual desktops and virtual servers.
