Managing Containers

A container is a single Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that can run up to four connectors. The exact number of connectors depends on your current service agreement and the type of connector.

Containers may run on ArcMCs, on Connector Appliances, and on L3XXX model Loggers. The number of containers that can be run at one time is based on the product license. Check under System Admin > License & Update for this information.

Scanning a managed host will ensure all currently running containers on the host (and the connectors associated with them) are accurately inventoried. For more information, see Scanning a Host.

Note: A connector of any of the following types must be the single connector running in its container:

  • Trend Micro Control Manager (TMCM)

  • Syslog

  • Windows Unified Connector (WUC)

Note: For Microsoft Windows Event Log (WINC), only one connector can be created on an ArcMC appliance.
