Innlegget How to add Active Directory using vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager dukket først opp på Vedaa.net.
]]>First you need to login as admin@local and go to Identity and Tenant Management then to Directories and Add Directory. Choose Active directory over LDAP
Insert your details as shown in picture below. when you have added all the details click the Test Connection button. If all is green you are good if not you need to start troubleshooting. Start with verifying that all the details indeed are correct.
On the next screen verify that it has found the correct domain and click Save And Next
On the Attribute page you can choose to go with det defaults shown in this picture or you can make changes if needed. Click Save and Next.
In the Group Selection section you must add a DNs for the groups you want to synchronize into vIDM. If you for some reason only want to add users you can do that in the next section. When you are satisfied with your selection click Save and Next.
Select any users you want to sync that is not in any of your synced groups and click Save and Next
In this next section a dry run will be performed and you will get a summary of the users and groups that will be synced and a warning if any of the users don’t contain the required attributes and therefor cannot be synchronized. If you are not satisfied you can always click Back button and do changes. When you are happy click Sync and Complete.
You can now use AD users and groups within Identity Manager.
It can be smart to go through the directory settings inside the vIDM appliance after setup to change Sync Frequency and other settings. By default the sync is once pr week.
If you want to go further and enable true SSO for your users take a look at How to enable True SSO for vRealize Suite logins.

]]>Attention
If you have vIDM 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 this feature is not working with the embedded connector. please upgrade to 3.3.5 where it is working again.
In this blog I will walk you through how to setup true SSO, but first to some prerequisites.
If all prerequisite are met we can start the setup. But before we can configure the adapter we need to join the appliance to the domain. Login to your Identity Manager with admin user and go to Identity & Access Management and then Setup
Under Available Actions click Join Domain and Insert username and password to join the domain. You can leave Organizational unit (OU) of domain to join blank or
If you want the machine placed directly in the correct OU, just add the details for your environment. Example: OU=Computers,OU=LAB,DC=lab,DC=vedaa,DC=net
When that is done we can continue and enable KerberosIdpAdapter
Make sure you still are at Identity & Access Management and Setup as before.
Under Worker click on your appliance FQDN and then Auth Adapters
Now click on KerberosIdpAdapter check the box Enable Windows Authentication and click Save. Close the current browser tab.
Go back to Identity & Access Management but this time stay on Manage and click on Policies. Select the default_access_policy_set and click edit
Click next og 2 Configuration and then click on All Ranges (Device Type Web Browser)
Edit the policy by first clicking ADD FALLBACK METHOD. Then change the order of the logins as shown below. First Kerberos then Password and last Password (Local Directory) then click Save, and then Next and Save.
True SSO should now be working form the VMware side of things. If it is not working take a look at thees additional steps.
Here is some additional steps you might need to perform if it is not working. First make sure that vIDM URL is part of local intranet zone. If it is not add it by following thees steps.
In Windows search for Internet Options
In Internet Options, click the Security tab.
On the Security page, select Local intranet.
Click Sites and add your vIDM URL to the list of websites.
It it is still not working verify that Integrated Windows Authentication is enabled.
In the Internet Options window, click the Advanced tab. In the Settings list, under Security, select Enable Integrated Windows Authentication.

]]>Innlegget Limitations when using Workspace One Access for «free» with vRSLCM? dukket først opp på Vedaa.net.
]]>When you install vRealize Suite Lifecycle manager It comes with the Workspace One Access (VMware Identity Manager) And in this appliance you get a lot of options and no limitations in any way. So it is up to you to avoid using any features that you are not allowed to use. If you do then you might be in breach of the EULA.
So I went on a google search for answers to this question and boy I can tell you that it is not straight forward. I have also tried to get VMware to give me a statement or point me to the correct documentation where they say what I can and can’t do.
As I said you are not limited in any way and you could use all its functionality. But if you do you would then be in breach og the EULA according to an VMware Product Manager. So a problem arises, you could easily be in a breach without knowingly doing so.
After some investigation I was pointed to the VMware Product Guide where the following is stated.
Workspace ONE Access feature. A license to use VMware NSX Data Center (any edition) or NSX Cloud (any edition) includes an entitlement to use the Workspace ONE Access feature, but only for the following functionalities:
A license to use VMware vRealize Log Insight includes an entitlement to use the Workspace ONE Access feature, but only for the following functionalities:
The quick answer is NO, when you look at the text I would interpret it to only apply if I have NSX and or Log insight license. Not for vRA, vRops, vRNI, vRB and vRSLCM. I would also argue that there is a problem with the wording. If you look at point 4 and 5 and the inclusion of , and at the end, does it imply that point 5 is also not allowed?
And what about when they first say «but only for the following functionalities« and then inside a point they say «may not be used« What may not be used?
That I may not use single sign on with anything else than NSX and vRLI?
«single-sign-on functionality to access VMware products that support single-sign-on capabilities»
I honestly don’t know that to get out of this other than it doesn’t apply to this use case and that it is a shoehorn attempt to make a text fit something it is not meant to fit.
When you look at the VMware download page for Identity Manger 3.3.1 it clearly stated what it can be used for. But it doesn’t go into details.
«Download VMware Identity Manager 3.3.1 (for vRA, vRops, vRLI, vRB, vRNI, NSX only)«
If any of you have any insight on this please give me an update.

]]>Innlegget How to configure SSO web links in VMware Identity Manager Catalog for vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager imported products dukket først opp på Vedaa.net.
]]>Anyways if you have imported an existing product into vRSLCM and you are missing the SSO link in your catalog. This is how I fixed it (don’t know if this is the official way)
First you need to enable login with identity manager for the product you want to configure SSO for. When that is done and working do the following for the different products.
Right click on the login button and copy the URL. You will get something like the url listed under. You just need to fix the URL in the end to be like mine but with your vRNI link.
https://YOUR.IDENTITYMANAGER.FQDN/SAAS/auth/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=YOURID_auth_grant&scope=openid+user+email&redirect_uri=http://YOUR.VRNI.FQDN/#home
For the vROPS I was not able to use get the correct URL in the same way, here I used F12 in Google Chrome and recorded my login. I found the correct URL on the first line «authorize?response_type=…………..» and It should look something like this.
https:/your.identitymanager.fqdn/SAAS/auth/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=yourid&redirect_uri=https://your.vrops.fqdn/ui/vidmClient/vidm
When you got the URL go into your Identity managers Administrator Console and under Catalog and Web Apps create a new web link.
In the Configuration menu choose Authentication Type «Web Application Link» and in Target URL insert the URL you copied from vRealize Network Insight login screen.

]]>In vRSLCM you can easily replace the self-signed certificate on the vIDM appliance if you have previously imported it into the locker. Just go through the «Replace Certificate» prosess and do the included precheck.
You will probably get the same warning as I did. If you click finish it will replace the certificate and everything looks fine until you try «Trigger Inventory Sync» from vRSLCM. It will fail with the following error:
