Contributor IIFilter out VMware Virtual Machines from being monitored in SL1
We have approximately 300 virtual desktop VMware Virtual Machines that we do not want to monitor via the VMware Vcenter PowerPack in SL1. All other Virtual Machines and Virtual Hosts will be monitore...
What we have done is not grant permissions to the SL1 account to view the objects in vCenter. So instead of seeding the permissions at the top level of the vCenter, each host object (not cluster) is given permissions, and in the VM view the folders have no permissions.
If you don't want to monitor the hosts themselves that host said VMs either, you can literally just take the permission away from that cluster or clusters. The important thing is not giving permissions to your entire vCenter at the top level.
