Update NSX-V Data in NetBrain through Benchmark Automatically

Since the discovery only retrieves basic data from your NSX-V network, you need to execute a benchmark task after the discovery to retrieve all data and build all components, including topology, visual spaces, and data views. For more Information, see Setup a Benchmark Task.

  1. Click  the menu in the Domain Management page and select Schedule Task.
  2. On the Discovery/Benchmark Task tab, click Add Benchmark Task. 
  3. In the Time Settings tab, define the task frequency.

  4. In the Batch Definition tab, perform the following tasks:
    1. Go to the Device Scope tab, check the Select external API servers to retrieve data checkbox and select VMware NSX-V server.

    2. Go to the Buil-in Data tab, and select the VMware NSX-V checkbox.

  5. On the Additional Operation After Benchmark tab, select all the checkboxes in the Build Topology and Rebuild Visual Space areas.

  6. Click Submit.
