Is there any way to pool several Vman instances from one federated collector?

Hi folks,

As mentioned, is there any ways to make several Vman appliances to be pooled from one federated collector. We are looking for the ability to have Vman appliance with actual data for each geographical location where our DCs located is.

Thanks,

Dmytro

The use case for federated collectors is quite the opposite. You can deploy FCs in each DC, which store and forward to the VMan virtual appliance. What is the use case for the data to be held in each of the DCs?

  We already have FC in each our DC. But we want to have 2 or more Vman appliances in different geolocations for redundancy and to ease access for tech personal.

    1 FC can be a collector for 1 VMan appliance only. I guess the options would be
    - A parallel set of FCs and VMan
    - (semi-workaround) Have an Orion (NPM or SAM) instance sync with VMan for redundancy of data. See blog below
