Manage passwords for VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle products

The VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle Locker allows you to manage passwords for VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle products.

The VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle Locker stores all the passwords that are used across the VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle products.

Add the passwords for adding vCenter, product deployments, products import, and product password update. You can configure a password at the locker level and are retrieved from the UI.

Procedure

1. From the VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle My Services dashboard, click Locker.
2. Click Passwords.
3. To add a password, click Add.
   1. Enter the Password Alias and Password.
   2. To confirm, re-enter the Password and enter Password Description, and a valid User Name.
      Note: The user name text box is mandatory for adding the vCenter into VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle.
   3. Click Add.
4. To view, copy an ID, edit, or delete a specific password, use the vertical ellipse drop-down menu at the right of each password row as described in the following table.

   Function	Description
   View Password	You can view the selected password in plain text if you are an Admin user, after you authenticate the VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle SSH root password. This option is not available for Workspace ONE Access users.
   Copy ID	You can copy the password ID and reuse it. For example, when exporting JSON for product deployment, you can copy and reuse the existing password ID.
   Edit Password	You can edit a password that does not reference an existing password.
   Delete Password	You can delete a password that is no longer used and does not have any references.

   If you select an existing password, you can view its details and references. The Details tab displays the password identifier, user name, description, creation date, and last updated date. The References tab displays referenced environments at the product and node level, vCenter passwords in data centers, and other passwords that are used in the Settings tab.

   You can also update a password for products, nodes, proxy, and vCenter instances. To update the password, click the vertical ellipses (⋮) for the selected password.

   Note:

   • When you update a password that is managed by VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle, the password is updated on the Passwords page and in the VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle inventory.
   • When you update a password for vCenter, proxy, or VMware Workspace ONE Access configuration administrators, the password is updated only in the VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle inventory.
