Symantec HA Plug-in for vSphere Web Client is released as an add-on with Veritas Operations Manager Management Server 6.1 or later. The plug-in helps Veritas Operations Manager Management Server collect health information of monitored applications running on virtual machines in a VMware virtual environment. The plug-in further helps display the health information in the Symantec High Availability tab and Symantec High Availability Dashboard of vSphere Web Client. You can use these interfaces to perform Symantec ApplicationHA tasks such as application start or stop from the vSphere Web Client.

In this way, the Symantec HA Plug-in for vSpwere Web Client plays a role is similar to the Symantec HA Console which integrates functionalities with vSphere Client (desktop). However, certain tasks are presently supported only via the Symantec High Availability Console. These include vCenter-integrated installation of ApplicationHA on virtual machines, and ApplicationHA integration with the VMware Site Recovery manager. You can therefore continue to simultaneously use the Symantec HA Plug-in for vSphere Web Client as well as Symantec High Availability Console.
