After you start
the EAM Sample Solution in an application server, it appears in Solutions
Manager in the vSphere client. You can monitor, manage, and configure the EAM
Sample Solution in Solutions Manager and use it to deploy ESX agents.
When you start the EAM Sample
Solution, it registers itself as a vCenter extension with the vCenter Server
instance that you configured in the
eamri.properties
file. The sample solution also registers itself as a vCenter solution with
Solutions Manager.
