Tenants log in to the VMware Cloud Director Availability Tenant Portal to operate workloads enabled for replications.

  • Alternatively, tenants can directly log in by using vSphere. For more information, see Access the VMware Cloud Director Availability vSphere Client Plug-In.
  • VMware Cloud Director-backed sites:
    VMware Cloud Director Availability allows logins by using the VMware Cloud Director credentials.
  • vSphere DR and Migration:
    VMware Cloud Director Availability 4.4 or later allows logins to vCenter Server sites, not backed by VMware Cloud Director by using the vSphere single-sign-on credentials.

Prerequisites

    Verify that your VMware Cloud Director tenant user profile has Organization Administrator privileges.
  • Alternatively, for vSphere DR and migration:
    Verify that your vSphere tenant user profile has VRUSERS privileges and ensure that the user has sufficient privileges to see and interact with vSphere workloads.
