vcops 5.0.3 windows base and OVA version comparing question?

[RockyHsu]

Dear all,

I have installed one vcops5.0.3 in windows server 2008 R2 and one vcops5.0.1 in OVA import

But,I logined to  web console,and find out there is different between windows base and OVA

Windows one shows "Custom UI"

OVA one shows "vSphere UI"

The content is totally different, I can't find the function that sync with vcenter in Windows one

I am thinking I might type a wrong link.

Who can tell me what is correct way to setup vcops windows base,and see the same content like OVA one.

Thanks

Rocky

Hi Rocky,

Those are diferent view of the vcops.
you have 3 diferent views in the vcops there are:

vsphere UI: <your IP host>                                       -> Here you  have a total view of all the environment of your registered vcenters.

Custom UI: <your IP host>/custom                           ->  Here you see a custom view, and you can customize the vcops, make dashboards, control       resources, metrics and all features.

Admin UI:   <your IP host>/admin                            -> Here you manage the upgrades, configurations, registration and admin configurations.

I really don know what views have the windows base but in the ovf there are limited view by the licences version.

hope this work for you.

Mauro

Hi Mauro,

Thanks for your explanation.it's really clear!!

But,my problem is that even I input https://host ip /

it always shows custom UI on windows base one

I've tried to input https://host ip/custom or https://host ip/admin

But,those addresses can't be recognized

Do you know what happen to vcops windows version????

Regards,

Rocky

In the windows base(also called Standalone) there is no separate admin app, and vsphere ui is also not available. Only Custom UI is available. http(s)://<ip> should take you to Custom UI. You can do admin tasks from Custom UI itself.

With ova you get a separate admin app, vsphere ui and custom ui.

For admin app - http(s)://<ip>/admin

For vsphere ui - http(s)://<ip>/vcops-vsphere

For custom ui - http(s)://<ip>/vcops-custom
