You can optionally choose to install the VMware Cloud Director Data Collector and vShield Manager Data
Collector. All the data collectors can be installed even after a vCenter Chargeback Manager instance is
installed. If you are installing the vShield Manager Data Collector, choose to install the VMware Cloud
Director Data Collector too or ensure that at least one instance of VMware Cloud Director Data Collector
is running.
If you installing only the load balancer, then you cannot select any data collectors for installation.
10 If you chose to install the VMware Cloud Director Data Collector, enter the VMware Cloud Director
database-related information, and click Next.
Option Description
Database Type
The type of database used to create the VMware Cloud Director database.
The permissible values are ORACLE and SQL Server.
Database URL
The IP address of the system on which the VMware Cloud Director database
is installed.
The database URL can be in any of the following formats:
IP Address
Host Name
You can also specify a well formed JDBC URL that starts with 'jdbc' and
contains the database name.
Database Port
(Optional) The port on which the database service is listening for requests.
If the port number is not specified, the installer uses the default port. You
must specify the TNS listener port if you are not using the default port 1521.
Database Name
Name of the database in which VMware Cloud Director stores the
application-specific data. This must be the service name and not the SID.
Database Username
The name of the database user. The database user must have privileges to
read the VMware Cloud Director database objects.
Database Password
Password for the user name that you have provided.
If the installer successfully connects to the database, the next screen is displayed.
11 If you chose to install the VMware Cloud Director Data Collector or the vShield Manager Data Collector,
enter the password for the vCenter Chargeback Manager administrative account and click Next.
You must provide the correct password for the data collectors to call the vCenter Chargeback Manager
APIs.
12 Review the information displayed on the Pre-Installation Summary screen, and click Install.
The installer starts installing the various components. If the installation is successful, the URL for accessing
the vCenter Chargeback Manager application and the information required to add this installed instance
to the cluster is displayed.
13 Note this information, and click Done.
The administrative account for accessing this instance will be same as the one used by the existing vCenter
Chargeback Manager instance.
Adding a vCenter Chargeback Manager Instance to a Cluster
Installing a vCenter Chargeback Manager cluster instance does not automatically add it to the cluster. You
must manually add a vCenter Chargeback Manager instance to a cluster.
You can add a vCenter Chargeback Manager instance to a cluster by running the ModifyLBWorkers.bat file on
the machine on which the load balancer is installed.
Procedure
1 On the machine on which the load balancer is installed, open a command-line window.
