VMware TAM Data Manager (TDM) Docker image

This Docker version is not affiliated with or endorsed by the VMware Professional Services Tools team, who maintain and builds the official version. Only to to be used at your own risk. The intent is to have a Docker alternative to the official Java and OVA builds.

Latest official TDM release is 2.1.7 and this Docker image is based on that TDM version.

TDM Introduction

The TAM Data Manager / TAM Data Collector gathers key statistics, deployed product licenses and usage information from VMware virtual infrastructure and VMware Horizon View deployments to be sent to and analyzed by the VMware TAM team as well as the VMware Phone Home Customer Intelligence team.

Customers can install the TAM Data Collector to collect usage data. Customers collect data, export the project file, and provide it to VMware Technical Account Managers (TAMs) in person or by email. If the customer agrees to send data to VMware in the initial customer agreement, then data is sent to the VMware Phone Home network by the TAM at a later stage of the TDM process.

Intended users

This product is solely intended for:

  • VMware Technical Account Managers (TAM)
  • VMware System Enineers (SE) for DICE Customer Models
  • VMware customers who have a current TAM service subscription (TDM in Collector mode) Are you not a VMware TAM customer or VMware TAM or SE there is no way for you to get any use out of this tool
