Using vRealize Automation with Azure VMware Solution

This procedure describes how to set up vRealize Automation to work with a Microsoft Azure VMware Solution self-service hybrid cloud environment so that they can use vRealize Automationworkloads within this environment.

vRealize Automation supports connections with Azure VMware Solution (AVS) to move and run VMware workloads on an Azure cloud environment. AVS was created by Microsoft to support interface with VMware environments.

Use of AVS is well documented by Microsoft. You can find the documentation here:

• Azure VMware Solution -https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-vmware/

To use AVS in vRealize Automation, you must set up both vCenter and NSX-T cloud accounts. See the following documentation for setting up these cloud accounts:

• Set up vCenter cloud account - Create a vCenter cloud account in vRealize Automation
• Create an NSX-T cloud account - Create an NSX-T cloud account in vRealize Automation

The following procedure outlines the high level steps to configure your environment so that you can deploy vRealize Automation workloads on AVS.

1. Install and configure Azure VMware Solution based on the vendor instructions as appropriate for your environment.
2. Create vCenter and NSX-T cloud accounts within your vRealize Automation deployment.
