2 Navigate to the \vCenter-CB-Tools\load-balancer\bin directory.
cd
Installation_Folder
\vCenter-CB-Tools\load-balancer\bin\
where, Installation_Folder is the complete folder path provided during the vCenter Chargeback Manager
installation. The default installation folder is C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware vCenter Chargeback.
3 Run the ModifyLBWorkers.bat file to register the vCenter Chargeback Manager instance with the load
balancer.
ModifyLBWorkers add
Host_IP_Address
Load-Balancer_Port
Server_Instance_Name
Here, Host_IP_Address is the IP address of the machine on which the new vCenter Chargeback Manager
instance is installed, Load-Balancer_Port is the port through which the vCenter Chargeback Manager
instance communicates with the load balancer, and Server_Instance_Name is the name of the new vCenter
Chargeback Manager instance that you want to add to the cluster. Load-Balancer_Port is same as the port
configured during the new vCenter Chargeback Manager installation. Server_Instance_Name is the name
that you have provided during the installation.
4 Restart the Load Balancer service from the Start > Programs > VMware > VMware vCenter Chargeback
> vCenter Chargeback Manager Services menu.
Install vCenter Chargeback Manager with an Existing Database Schema
You can create a stand-alone vCenter Chargeback Manager instance that uses an existing vCenter Chargeback
Manager schema.
When you install vCenter Chargeback Manager, you provide database details to install the vCenter Chargeback
Manager schema. If the database already contains the vCenter Chargeback Manager database schema, the
installer lets you use it as is or create a new schema.
This install procedure is particularly useful when you want to move a vCenter Chargeback Manager instance,
the load balancer, and the vCenter Chargeback Manager database to a different machine from the one that
they currently exist on.
You can uninstall a vCenter Chargeback Manager instance but retain the database. You can then move the
database to a new location and re-install vCenter Chargeback Manager and the load balancer on different
machines. When re-installing vCenter Chargeback Manager, you must provide the database details of the
relocated vCenter Chargeback Manager database.
NOTE If the installation fails due to some reason, the uninstaller is automatically invoked and all the
components installed till the failure occurred is removed.
The administrative account for accessing this re-installed vCenter Chargeback Manager instance will be same
as the one used during the installation of the earlier vCenter Chargeback Manager instance.
Procedure
1 Run the vCenter-CB.exe file.
The installation wizard is displayed.
2 Click Next on the Introduction screen.
3 Accept the end-user license agreement, and click Next.
4 Provide the path for the installation directory, and click Next.
If the specified installation directory exists, ensure that it is empty. If the specified installation directory
does not exist, the installer creates the directory. The install path must contain at least one folder. You
cannot provide only the drive name. Also, the directory path must contain only ASCII characters.
