All existing users of VMware Cloud services who used to access services using a VMware account, must link the account to their federated account.

This step has to be completed when you first log in to Cloud Services Console with your federated account after the federation setup for your corporate domain has been completed. New users synced with your corporate domain post federation don't need to have a VMware ID unless they need to view billing information or file support tickets. In this case, they have to create a VMware account first, and then link their VMware ID to their federated account.

Prerequisites

Log in to VMware Cloud Services Console with your federated account.

Procedure

  1. Click your user name on the Cloud Services Console menu.
  2. Click My Account.
  3. In the VMware ID Details of the My Account > Profile page, click Link a VMware ID.
  4. Provide your VMware ID email and follow the prompts to complete the account linking.

What to do next

When you log in the Management Organization for acme.com as an Enterprise Administrator, you can access the Enterprise Federation dashboard that lets you modify the initial federation setup. For more information, see How do I modify the enterprise federation setup.
