Option Description
Database Port
(Optional) The port on which the database service is listening for requests.
If the port number is not specified, the installer uses the default port. For an
Oracle database, you must specify the TNS listener port if you are not using
the default port 1521. For an SQL Server database, specify the database
instance port if you are using a static port.
Database Name
Name of the database in which vCenter Chargeback Manager stores the
application-specific data. For Oracle Database, ensure that you provide the
service name and not the SID.
SQL Authentication Mode
This option is applicable only for SQL Server databases. For an SQL Server
database, the authentication type can be either SQL Server Authentication
or Windows Authentication.
Database Username
The name of the database user. The database user must have privileges to
create and delete schema, as well as read from and write to the database. If
you select Windows Authentication for SQL Authentication Mode, you
must provide the Windows user account name. The user name must be of
the form DomainName\UserName. Also, the user must have the Log on as
a service permission.
Database Password
Password for the user name that you have provided. If you select Windows
Authentication as the authentication type, you must provide the password
for the Windows user account. Ensure that the Windows user account
password does not contain any special characters. The installer might fail if
the password contains special characters.
If the installer connects to the database and detects a vCenter Chargeback Manager schema, a dialog is
displayed.
6 Click Use it.
The vCenter Chargeback Manager instance will use this existing vCenter Chargeback Manager database.
7 Ensure that the Install Load Balancer Server option is not selected, and click Next.
8 Select Install vCenter Chargeback Server, enter the IP address and port details for the vCenter Chargeback
Manager, and click Next.
Option Description
IP Address
Static IP address or the FQDN of the machine on which you are installing
vCenter Chargeback Manager. Do not use localhost instead of the IP
address or the FQDN.
HTTP Port
An unused HTTP port through which vCenter Chargeback Manager can
communicate.
Load-Balancer Port
An unused port through which vCenter Chargeback Manager can
communicate with the load balancer (Apache Server).
Server Instance Name
A unique user-defined name for the vCenter Chargeback Manager instance.
This name is used by the load balancer to identify the instance. Ensure that
the instance name contains only ASCII characters.
If the specified ports are free, the next screen is displayed.
If you are installing only the load balancer, then ensure that the Install vCenter Chargeback Server option
is not selected and click Next.
9 Select the data collectors that you want to install and click Next.
The Install vCenter Chargeback Data Collector option is selected by default. You must have at least one
instance of this data collector running and registered with the application for the database synchronization
jobs to run.
