The VMCLI configuration file (vmcliConfiguration.xml) contains settings for the Data Protection for VMware vSphere GUI or Data Protection for VMware vCloud GUI.
The Data Protection for VMware installation process requires that a user specifies a vCenter or vCloud Server IP address and whether to enable access to the GUI by a web browser. However, after installation, the server IP address and GUI access method cannot be modified by the installer.
To update these settings, you can manually edit the VMCLI configuration
file (vmcliConfiguration.xml). This file is created
during installation in the following locations:
On Windows systems:
C:\IBM\tivoli\tsm\tdpvmware\webserver\usr\servers\veProfile\tsmVmGUI
On Linux systems:
/opt/tivoli/tsm/tdpvmware/common/webserver/usr/servers/veProfile/tsmVmGUI/
