By default, VMware Cloud Director Availability can access all provider virtual data centers (pVDCs) that the VMware Cloud Director instance manages. As a provider, you can select the accessible provider VDCs for each VMware Cloud Director Availability instance.
Note: In a multi-site deployment when the
vCenter Server instances are in separate data centers but in the same SSO domain, the
Replicator Service tries connecting to all
vCenter Server instances in the SSO domain, even restricted provider VDCs. If this connectivity is not possible to some remote
vCenter Server due to network restrictions, navigating to
System Health in the user interface can be slow and the logs can contain messages about connectivity problems.
Procedure
What to do next
- Tenants can create replications by using inventory objects that belong only to the selected provider VDCs.
- You can also control the paired sites each tenant sees by hiding certain cloud sites for specific organizations. For more information, see Control the paired sites organization access.
