To authenticate and manage user permissions, vRealize Orchestrator requires a connection to either vRealize Automation or a vSphere server instance.
When you download, and deploy
vRealize Orchestrator Appliance, you must configure the server with a
vRealize Automation or
vSphere authentication. See
Configuring a Standalone vRealize Orchestrator Server.
Note:
vRealize Orchestrator 8.x authentication with
vRealize Automation is only supported with
vRealize Automation 8.x.
