You can manually run a scheduled workflow before it runs automatically.

When you run a workflow manually, the schedule is not affected. After the manual run, the workflow runs again at the scheduled time.

Prerequisites

Verify that you have configured at least one Orchestrator server to work with the same Single Sign-On instance to which both the vCenter Server and vSphere Web Client are pointing. You must also ensure that Orchestrator is registered as a vCenter Server extension. You register Orchestrator as a vCenter Server extension when you specify a user account that has the necessary privileges to manage vCenter Serverextensions. For more information, see Installing and Configuring VMware vRealize Orchestrator.

Procedure

  1. In the object navigator, click vRealize Orchestrator.
  2. Click Scheduled workflows.
    A list of the scheduled workflows appears.
  3. Click Scheduled workflows.
  4. Right-click the workflow that you want to run and select Run now.

What to do next

You can view information about the workflow run in the Recent Tasks pane or in the Orchestrator server menu. See View Information About Workflow Runs.
