Managing vSphere Resources 6
After you add vSphere resources to the Cloud Director system, you can perform some management functions
from Cloud Director. You can also use the vSphere Client to manage these resources.
vSphere resources include vCenter servers, resource pools, ESX/ESXi hosts, datastores, and network switches
and ports.

Managing vSphere vCenter Servers
After you attach a vCenter Server to Cloud Director, you can modify its settings, reconnect to the vCenter

to reconnect.
