Foglight includes a licensing capability that restricts access to those features that are defined in the license. Any Management Server installation requires a license that grants access to server-specific parts of the browser interface and the features associated with them. Foglight cartridges are also license-protected. While some cartridges are covered by the base Foglight license (such as Foglight Agent Manager cartridges and the Foglight for Infrastructure), others may require an additional license.
Foglight for VMware is covered by the base Foglight Evolve license and Foglight for Virtualization, Enterprise Edition license. A separate additional license is required for installation in the base Foglight product.

Important: To enable the VMware Performance Agent to monitor your virtual environment, you must grant the agent privileges for accessing the Virtual Center and collecting data from it, as described in "Granting the VMware Performance Agent Privileges to Collect Data from a Virtual Center" in the Foglight for VMware Installation Guide. However, when you create an administrative role in the Virtual Center for that purpose, in addition to the Datastore > Browse Datastores and Sessions > View and Terminate Sessions privileges, that role must also include the Performance > Modify intervals privilege. When collecting traffic-type network metrics from the monitored ESX hosts, this privilege enables the VMware Performance Agent to change the performance metric counter levels in order to collect this data. Also, any existing Virtual Center accounts that the VMware Performance Agent already uses to log in to the monitored Virtual Center must be granted the Performance > Modify intervals privilege.
After installing all of the cartridge files, the following cartridges appear on the list of installed cartridges:
