Deploying vRealize Automation

  • Introduction

    vRealize Automation provides self-service IT deployment and delivery through a secure portal. The portal enables users to request new IT services and manage IT resources while ensuring compliance with business policies. Requests are processed through a published service catalog to provide a consistent user experience regardless of the underlying physical hardware configuration.

    Prerequisites

    Before deploying vRealize Automation for use with VMware Cloud Foundation, install a license and ensure that all additional prerequisites, as described in this section, are met.

    Install vRealize Automation license

    Before deploying vRealize Automation for use with VMware Cloud Foundation, add a license:

    1. From the SDDC Manager Dashboard, select Administration > Licensing.
    1. Click + License Key.
    2. Select VMware vRealize Automation as the product name.
    3. Enter the license key.

    You can enter a license key for either vRealize Automation or a suite license for a product that includes vRealize Automation—vCloud Suite or vRealize Suite, for example.

    If you have multiple license keys for a product, the description helps to identify the license.
