Connection to Hyper-V questions from customers IT

  • 1.  Connection to Hyper-V questions from customers IT

    Posted Thu February 01, 2024 12:39 PM

    Hello Group!

    Our customers IT is troubling because of the connection via VM-Manger to Hyper-V cluster, they asked me to answer following questions:

    1. What does IBM exactly do with the data?
    2. Which data exactly will be collected?
    3. To where is the data transferred?
    4. Why this data has to be collected via Hyper-V (VM-Manager)?

    Could anybody answer that questions? Could you as well send a link to the docs, where I can find the necessary information?

    I highly appreciate your support.

    Thanks a lot.

    Andreas

    Hello,

    Let me try to answer some of those,

    1. What does IBM exactly do with the data?
       the Hypervisor data is being transferred upon collection from VM-Manger Tool to ILMT server and processed accordingly.
    2. Which data exactly will be collected?
      https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/license-metric-tool?topic=managers-data-collected-from-vm-user-requirements
    3. To where is the data transferred?
      to ILMT server itself.
    4. Why this data has to be collected via Hyper-V (VM-Manager)?
