We recently installed our first CDOT system with 8.3P1 and now I want to setup the monitoring and configuration environment for it. I have few questions
* Do I need a separate OnCommand Server for CDOT or I can use my existing server that I use to manage my 7mode systems. My current system is using OnCommand 5.1.
* We are on Vsphere 5.0 and per admin guide it seems like I cannot use Unified Manager 6.2 so can I use Unified Manager 6.1 with CDOT 8.3P1
* Is performance manager part of unified Manager or it is a separate appliance. What I want to know that if I download and install the unified manager appliance do I get performance manager as part of it or I have to download performance manager appliance separately and install it as a separate VM
Thank you

IIRC, when you setup 5.1 you tell it if it will manage cMode OR 7mode. It can't do both.
* We are on Vsphere 5.0 and per admin guide it seems like I cannot use Unified Manager 6.2 so can I use Unified Manager 6.1 with CDOT 8.3P1
Sorry, not sure about that one. Is that a Vsphere version issue for the virtual appliance?

It is a separate download/virtual machine.
I will say we have had no end of trouble with both of these products and have been unable to even get Perf Manager installed. I suspect if you use the pre-built VMs you may be fine, we were trying to install the packages on already provisioned Linux VMs.

We had no trouble getting the virtual appliance installed and running. Our only complaint is that the unified manager uses a timed poll for events, meaning that you might have to wait up to 15 minutes to see an alert. We decided to configure the MIB file for the actual filers into our SNMP software. As a bonus, we discovered it's capable of listening for events from 7-mode on the same MIB file.
