Requisitions

In order to monitor Cisco Ucs Manager Entities, you need to import these entities into OpenNMS. To do so, create a requisition for a given connection alias. A connection alias can represent multiple clusters. All nodes created by a requisition are assigned to the same location controlled by the `location' parameter, which uses the default location if not specified.

Furthermore, a connection can also be used to import vms entities.
