VMAN appliance is not able to monitor Hardware Health.

If you have VMAN integrated with VIM in Orion:

+ you need license on VIM/SAM

Peter is correct the VMAN appliance by itself can not monitor hardware health but when you integrate with Orion you get access to hardware health , perfstack, recommendations, appstack, improved reporting and Alerting, etc.

You can integrate with NPM or SAM but if you prefer a standalone VMAN instance the VMAN download zip includes the Orion stand-alone Orion install which is used to integrate to the VMAN appliance without SAM or NPM.

If i prefer a standalone VMAN then i would still need two separate servers for installing VIM and the DB server, right? And then integrate the VMAN instance with VIM server.

That is correct, VMAN 8 RC is right around the corner and will allow for a single install with the VMAN pollers in Orion. So, in this case, you would just need have the single install

So VMAN and orion can be in same server ?

Once VMAN 8.0 is available yes, the VMAN installer will be similar to SRM, NPM, & SAM.
