This part of the lab is presented as a Hands-on Labs Interactive Simulation. This will allow you to experience steps which are too time-consuming or resource intensive to do live in the lab environment. In this simulation, you can use the software interface as if you are interacting with a live environment.

The orange boxes show where to click, and the left and right arrow keys can also be used to move through the simulation in either direction.

In this simulation, an older version of vRealize Log Insight already exists in the Rainpole Dev environment.  You will use the capabilities of vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager to upgrade vRealize Log Insight to the current version.
