Automate configuration of vFoglight agents

Hi,

I've just today started to create a powershell script that creates/manages a VMware Performance agent.

What it's capable of doing is by using the comman-line functionality of fglcmd:

Prerequisites (a fglam must have already been created)

1. Deploy a VMware Performance agent

2. Create a VMware Performance agent

3. Activate it

4. Start data collection

Of these steps I've tested 1,3 and 4 and they work.

The issue I'm having is that I can't find support in the command-line reference http://us-downloads.quest.com/Repository/support.quest.com/vFoglight/6.7/Documentation/Management%20Server/vFoglight_CommandLineReference.pdf page 73.

for passing the Virtual Center configuration information such as:

Host name

Host Port

Host User Name

Host Password

agentStatusDashboard.png

    Manual way to enter this information

Without this possibility I can't automate this for new customers or new agents at existing customers?

Is this possible in any way or am I forced to use the UI (agent status dashboard) to do this?

Example of agent:create


C:\Quest_Software\vFoglight\bin>fglcmd -usr foglight -pwd foglight -cmd agent:create -type WindowsAgent -name Agent5 -clientname Host1

Regards

Erik Alm
