Problems with getting the Service Discovery Management Pack up and running

$

Hello

For a number of days I've been trying to get this pack to work.   I followed the user guide, and some deployment instructions I've found on the internet.   As I understand it I need to configure a rarely used autohentication method (VGauth) to make it work.   I've configured the default windows user and password (on the service discover adapter, (together with the vcenter credentials), Linux is not important for the moment.       When I check the results in vRealize I see in the "virtual machine relationships" dashboard, I see as status for my test VM the following:

Service discover: succes,  service discovery method: common username, etc..   (these are the most important for debugging).  But there are no services in the view: "list of services running in the selected VM".    When I check the VM I find that in the folder c:\temp a directory called  "VMware-SDMP-Scripts-3597-s_vrealize".   In that folder there are a number of files (*.bat,stderr,stdout,).  

The file script_-6951322665996061208_0.stdout, contains a list of the services.

When I take a look in vCenter I see underneath the events of the VM, the following  :

Guest operation Start Program performed

Guest operation List Processes performed

Guest operation Initiate File Transfer From Guest performed

Guest operation Initiate File Tranfer From Guest performed

Guest operation Start Program performed

...

So one could think that it actually works, but I dont get any results in vRealise.   My questions where do I look on my vRealize appliance to see what is going wrong?   (I know there is something in "administration\support\logs\collector\adapters\ServiceDiscoveryAdapter" but it doesn't tell me what I need to know

Where are the result files of a VM stored on the vrops appliance? I'd like to verify if something actually does get copied or not..   

I also configued the guest user mapping, but doesn't return anything, and the release of the SDMP 2.1 tell me that guest user mapping doesnt work with vrops 6.7..

Any help will be much  appreciated.   (Too be honest, the SDMP has very poor documentation)

 

Kind regards

Marino
