As part of integrating VMware Aria Operations for Logs with VMware Aria Operations, you must specify credentials for VMware Aria Operations for Logs to authenticate against VMware Aria Operations.

VMware Aria Operations supports both local user accounts and multiple LDAP sources. Both VMware Aria Operations and VMware Workspace ONE Access integrations are configured by a VMware Aria Operations for Logs Super Admin user or a user with Integration permissions.

If your deployment uses a VMware Workspace ONE Access integration in VMware Aria Operations for Logs, the VMware Workspace ONE Access fallback URL (Redirect URL Host) and the target field on the VMware Aria Operations integration page must have the exact same value.

Prerequisites

Verify that the integration user account has permissions to manipulate objects in VMware Aria Operations. See Minimum Required Permissions for a Local or Active Directory User Account.

Procedure

  • To determine the user name for a local user account:
    1. On the VMware Aria Operations web interface, go to Adminstration > Access Control.
    2. Identify or create the integration user.
    3. Note the value of the User Name field. You specify this user name when you configure the integration in the VMware Aria Operations for Logs user interface.
  • To determine the user name format for the LDAP user account that must be provided in VMware Aria Operations for Logs, follow these instructions:
    1. On the VMware Aria Operations web interface, go to Adminstration > Access Control.
    2. Identify or create the integration user. Note the User Name and Source Type fields. For example, a user named [email protected] from the source type AD.
    3. On the VMware Aria Operations for Logs user interface, enter the user name as a combination of the user name and source type - [email protected]@Source. For example, [email protected]@ad.
