Assigning users/groups to the vCenter Server

Be it a simple installation or component installation, you will only able to connect to vCenter Server using the SSO administrator (administrator@vsphere.local) after the installation. This is because, by default, the SSO administrator is assigned the vCenter administrator role. Most environments require other users to be able to connect to vCenter Server. To make this possible, you will need to manually assign an access role to a user/group you would like to provide access to.

Getting ready

Make sure that the domain from which you will be selecting a group/user is added as an identity source. For instructions, read the Adding an additional Identity Source to the SSO Server recipe.

How to do it…

The following procedure will guide you through the steps required in assigning access roles to a user/group:

  1. Using Web Client, connect to vCenter Server as the SSO administrator and navigate to the vCenter inventory home:
