My VMs aren't catagorized by BV
I created Groups, catagories and so on.

Hi, you need to either categorize them manually on Workspace tab, or setup automated categorization rules.

Hello Gostev,

in vCenter i've configured custom attributes.
In older BV Version these CA were read from BV and categorized.

Is this different in the newer Version?

Hi Jean,

What version of BV have you been using previously? The behaviour should be the same, for VM categorization you need to either use rules or categorize VMs manually.

Also please note that you may import your custom attributes from vCenter via Mapping configuration wizard.

Thanks!

Hello Vitaly,

we are using the latest version.
Is it possible to start the wizard manualy.
When going to Configuration, the option to start the wizard doesn't pop up anymore

Jean,

An option to start a "mapping" wizard manually will be available in our upcoming release. As a workaround for now you may create a new Category without adding groups to this category, then click Configuration and the Wizard will pop-up.

Hope it helps!
