Abstract
Methods and apparatus to automatically configure monitoring of a virtual machine are disclosed. An example method includes identifying a first virtual machine in a first application definition. The example method also includes automatically installing an agent on a second virtual machine when (1) the second virtual machine is not included in the first application definition and (2) the second virtual machine is identified as having a designated configuration, and updating a status of the agent of the second virtual machine to indicate that the installed agent is running. The example method also includes applying a monitoring policy to the second virtual machine, the monitoring policy to be executed by the agent based on a resource automatically identified by the agent of the second virtual machine.
