Target ConfigurationA target is a service that performs management in your virtual environment. Workload Optimization Manager uses targets tomonitor workload and to execute actions in your environment. Target Configuration specifies the ports Workload OptimizationManager uses to connect with these services. You must install Workload Optimization Manager on a network that has access tothe specific services you want to set up as targets.For each target, Workload Optimization Manager communicates with the service via the management protocol that it exposes —The REST API, SMI-S, XML, or some other management transport. Workload Optimization Manager uses this communication todiscover the managed entities, monitor resource utilization, and execute actions.You can assign instances of the following technologies as Workload Optimization Manager targets: Application Servers – IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5 – Oracle WebLogic 12c– JBoss Application Server 6.3 – Apache Tomcat 7.x, 8.x, and 8.5.x– JVM 6.0 Cloud Managers – CloudStack 4.3 — 4.9– Microsoft System Center 2012 Virtual Machine Manager and System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager– VMware vCloud Director 5.x — 8.2– OpenStack Havana — Newton– Amazon AWS– Microsoft Azure– IBM SoftLayerDatabase Servers – Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2, 2012, 2014, and 2016– Oracle 11g R2 and 12c– MySQL all 5.6 and 5.7 releasesFabric Managers – Cisco UCS 3.1 – Cisco UCS Central– HPE OneView 3.00.04 Guest OS Processes––6AppDynamics 4.1 Docker API 1.20 Cisco Systems, Inc. www.cisco.com

Target ConfigurationTo configure an aggregated deployment of Workload Optimization Manager, you can assign Workload OptimizationManager servers as targets. The versions of target instances must match the version of the aggregating instance.Transport Layer Security RequirementsWorkload Optimization Manager requires Transport Layer Security (TLS) version 1.2 to establish secure communications withtargets. Most targets should have TLSv1.2 enabled. However, some targets might not have TLS enabled, or they might haveenabled an earlier version. In that case, you will see handshake errors when Workload Optimization Manager tries to connectwith the target service. When you go to the Target Configuration view, you will see a Validation Failed status for such targets.If target validation fails because of TLS support, you might see validation errors with the following strings: No appropriate protocolTo correct this error, ensure that you have enabled the latest version of TLS that your target technology supports. If thisdoes not resolve the issue, please contact Cisco Technical Support. Certificates do not conform to algorithm constraintsTo correct this error, refer to the documentation for your target technology for instructions to generate a certification keywith a length of 1024 or greater on your target server. If this does not resolve the issue, please contact Cisco TechnicalSupport.Adding and Removing Target VirtualManagement ServersThe target services your Workload Optimization Manager installation will manage appear in the Target Configuration list. You canadd, remove, and edit entries in this list. Note that the target service’s account must be configured with privileges that supportthe Workload Optimization Manager activities you want to perform. For example, the following list shows how vCenter privilegescorrespond to activities Workload Optimization Manager can perform: Read Only — Enables Workload Optimization Manager monitoring and simulation (what-if scenarios) onlyVCenter Administrator — Enables Workload Optimization Manager monitoring, simulation (what-if scenarios), andautomation functionsEnable Datastore Browse — Enabling this property for the account gives Workload Optimization Manager the privileges itneeds to enable its storage management functionalityAdding TargetsTo add a target service, click the Target Configuration button, provide the requested information, and click Apply to validatethose targets and start a new discovery.Typical information you provide includes: Target Type — Choose among the supported VM Management technologies (Hypervisor, Cloud Management, LoadBalancer, etc.)After you choose the technology, then choose the specific target type for that technology. For example, for Hypervisortechnology, the types you can choose include vCenter, RHEV, Hyper-V, and XenServer.Hostname or IP address — The address of the target service you want to addUser Name — A valid account username for the target servicePassword — A password for the target service accountEditing and Removing TargetsTo edit a target entry, select it in the list and then click Edit.
