Secure Connect Gateway 5.x — Virtual Edition User's Guide
Adapters
Adapters act as an interface between secure connect gateway and the systems management consoles. They enable secure connect gateway to inventory and retrieve alerts from supported devices that are managed by systems management console such as OpenManage Enterprise, instead of adding each device individually. After inventorying and adding the devices, secure connect gateway can monitor the devices for issues and also collect and upload telemetry to the backend.
From the Adapter page, you can set up, edit, or delete an adapter. The Adapter page also displays the name or IP address of the server on which the adapter is installed, system management console name and version, number of devices managed by the adapter, and the adapter status.
NOTE:If OpenManage Enterprise Services plug-in is installed and enabled on the OpenManage Enterprise instance, the devices are not retrieved by
secure connect gateway and
Inactive status is displayed for the adapter in the
secure connect gateway user interface. When you disable the plug-in and manually sync the adapter, or when
secure connect gateway performs a periodic scan,
Connected status is displayed and the devices are retrieved by
secure connect gateway.
When you click the name or IP address of the adapter, the adapter overview pane is displayed with the following details:
- Adapter display name, if any.
- Hostname or IP address of the server on which the systems management console is installed.
- Name and version of the systems management console.
- Operating system type.
- Adapter status.
- Timestamp of when the adapter sync was performed.
- Number of devices added successfully.
- Number of devices in the Staging group.
In the Adapter Overview pane, click Sync now to verify and update the devices that are inventoried through the adapter.
