HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software

Overview

HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software is a virtualization management solution from Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) that simplifies the provisioning, monitoring, and automation of virtual machines (VMs) across different hypervisor environments.

It provides a unified interface to manage:

KVM-based hypervisors supported by HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software
VMware vSphere environments

This centralized management approach streamlines operations across diverse virtual infrastructure components.

Use Cases

Discovery

Discovers all HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software components
Publishes relationships between resources to enable a topological view and simplify maintenance
Refer to the Hierarchy of HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software Resource for detailed structure

Monitoring

Provides metrics related to availability status, capacity, performance and usage.
Generates alerts when metric thresholds are breached to notify administrators of potential issues.

Supported Target Versions

This integration has been validated on HPE Morpheus VM Essentials Software single-instance and high availability architecture setups with build versions 8.0.4, 8.0.6, 8.0.7, 8.0.8, 8.0.9, and 8.0.11.

Roles and Permissions

As HPE VME appliance can support multi-tenanted approach, based on the customer environment system level, tenant level user with custom role and read only permissions can be created for monitoring the HPE VME environment.
