Check that VMs are activated and assigned a policy

After completing the tasks in Trigger an activation and policy assignment, you must check that VMs were activated and assigned a policy successfully.

To check:

1. In Deep Security Manager, click Computers at the top.
2. On the left, expand Computers > <your_vCenter> > Virtual Machines.
3. Check the TASK(S) and STATUS and columns. (Click Columns at the top to add them if they are not visible.) The TASK(S) column should indicate Activating, and your VMs should move from the Unmanaged (Unknown) status, to the Unmanaged (No Agent) status, to the Managed (Online) status. You may see the VMs move into the VMware Tools Not Installed status, but this is temporary.
4. Check the POLICY column to make sure the correct Deep Security policy was assigned.

You have now deployed Deep Security Virtual Appliance and protected your VMs with it.
