Add the vRealize Operations Manager Password to vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager for Intelligent Operations Management for VMware Cloud Foundation

Before deploying vRealize Operations Manager by using vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager, you must add the password for the vRealize Operations Manager appliance root user to the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager locker. Additionally, if you have not created the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager cross-instance environment as part of another validated solution, before creating the cross-instance environment for vRealize Operations Manager, you must add the password for the environment admin account to the locker.

vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager uses the vRealize Operations Managerroot password only for the vRealize Operations Manager deployment. After deploying vRealize Operations Manager in a vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager logical environment in VMware Cloud Foundation mode, the root password for the vRealize Operations Manager appliances is managed by SDDC Manager. See Password Management Design for vRealize Operations Manager for Intelligent Operations Management for VMware Cloud Foundation.

If you have a vRealize Automation implementation in your VMware Cloud Foundation environment as another validated solution, you already added the admin password for the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager cross-instance environment.

UI Procedure

Log in to vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager at https://<vrealize_suite_lifecycle_manager_fqdn> as vcfadmin@local.
On the My services page, click Locker.
In the navigation pane, click Passwords.
On the Passwords page, click Add.
The Add password page appears.
Configure the vRealize Operations Managerroot password according to your values in the VMware Cloud Foundation Planning and Preparation Workbook, optionally, enter a password description, and click Add.
If you have not integrated vRealize Automation as another validated solution, repeat the procedure for the admin password for the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager cross-instance environment.

PowerShell Procedure

Start Windows PowerShell.

Replace the values in the sample code with values from your VMware Cloud Foundation Planning and Preparation Workbook and run the commands in the PowerShell console.

$sddcManagerFqdn = "sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io"
$sddcManagerUser = "administrator@vsphere.local"
$sddcManagerPass = "VMw@re1!"

$rootPasswordAlias = "xint-vrops-root"
$rootPassword = "VMw@re1!"
$rootUserName = "root"

If you have not integrated vRealize Automation as another validated solution, replace the values in the sample code with values for the admin password of the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager cross-instance environment from your VMware Cloud Foundation Planning and Preparation Workbook and run the commands in the PowerShell console.
```
$xintPasswordAlias = "xint-env-admin"
$xintPassword = "VMw@re1!"
$xintUserName = "admin"
```

Perform the configuration for the vRealize Operation Manager root password by running the command in the PowerShell console.

New-vRSLCMLockerPassword -server $sddcManagerFqdn -user $sddcManagerUser -pass $sddcManagerPass -alias $rootPasswordAlias -password $rootPassword -userName $rootUserName

If you have not integrated vRealize Automation as another validated solution, perform the configuration for the admin password of the vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager cross-instance environment.
```
New-vRSLCMLockerPassword -server $sddcManagerFqdn -user $sddcManagerUser -pass $sddcManagerPass -alias $xintPasswordAlias -password $xintPassword -userName $xintUserName
```
