Veeam VMware Collector Installer Discovery

Veeam.Virt.Extensions.VMware.CollectorManagement.CollectorInstallerDiscovery (Discovery)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This rule discovers Management Servers in the resource pool created for Veeam VMware monitoring.

If this discovery is disabled, Collector auto-deployment functionality will not work, because Virtualization Extensions Service will have an empty list of Management Servers for auto-deployment and will not send installation binaries and scripts to these servers.
