Hi,

I noticed "#ERROR Failed to get VMguest password for datacenter HU DATACENTER." 
in your email, and this indicated that VM guest OS credential was not set in 
your environment. This step is required so that the scan operation can 
authenticate to each vm guest machine before our scan code is injected to vms. 
Currently, the administrator who installs/configures TSM DP for VMware is 
expected to define a single user/password to be used for all vms in a vCenter 
(for the purpose of scan).

There are two ways to configure the vm guest credential for a vCenter:

Method 1. from the DP for VMware GUI
Use the configuration wizard, you can find "Scan Password" under "Configuration 
Settings)

Method 2.
>From the machine where tsmcli command-line is installed, run the following
command:

vmcli -f set_password -type VMGuest -I password.txt

password.txt is an input text file with data center/user/password information. 
"datacentername", "username", and "password" are predefined keywords. Below is 
an example of entries in a password.txt file:

datacentername:My DataCenter 1 username:MyWindowsDomain1\scanuser1
password:secretpw1
datacentername:My DataCenter 2 username:MyWindowsDoamin22\scanuser1
password:secretpw2
datacentername:My DataCenter 3 username:scanuser1 password:secretpw3
