Connect Workload Domains to vRealize Suite Products in Cloud Foundation

You can connect workload domains to vRealize Operations and vRealize Automation product deployments in Cloud Foundation using the SDDC Manager user interface.

Note: This version of Cloud Foundation does not support connecting NSX-T workload domains to vRealize Automation through the SDDC Manager Dashboard. Use the vRealize Automation console instead.

Prerequisites

• Before you can connect the managment domain or workload domains to vRealize Operations, it must be deployed. For more information, see Deploy vRealize Operations in Cloud Foundation.

• Before you can connect workload domains to vRealize Automation, it must be deployed. For more information, see Deploy vRealize Automation in Cloud Foundation.

Procedure

1. On the SDDC Manager Dashboard, navigate to Inventory > Workload Domains.
   The Workload Domains page displays information for all workload domains.
2. Select the Security tab.
3. Click Connect to vRealize Products.

   The Connect to vRealize Products wizard opens to the Modify Connection page. This page lists all currently configured workload domains and enables you to connect workload domains to either your vRealize Operations and vRealize Automation deployments.

4. Select Enable for the desired workload domain.
5. If prompted, provide the Active Directory credentials used during the deployment of vRealize Automation and click Next. See Deploy vRealize Automation in Cloud Foundation.
6. Review the connection and click Finish.
   Important: If you enable a connection between vRealize Automation and a workload domain, and then complete the Connect to Workload Domains wizard, you cannot deactivate the connection.
