Sharing the Same Host across Different Monitoring Domains

GigaVUE‑FM enables you to share a host between VMware ESXi and VMware NSX-T monitoring domains. You can deploy multiple V Series nodes from VMware NSX-T monitoring domain and one V Series Node from VMware ESXi monitoring domain on the same host.

As a result, you can monitor the workload of virtual machines using the following two options:

• Connected to NSX segments using the V Series nodes deployed in NSX-T monitoring domain.

• Connected to regular VSS / VDS networks using the V Series node deployed in the ESXi monitoring domain.

Note:  GigaVUE‑FM cannot provide visibility in the ESXi platform to a Virtual Machine with NICs attached to both VMware NSX-T segments and ESXi VDS or VSS port groups.
