VMware Service Manager
Cloud Provisioning

16
Cloud Provisioning Portal
 A Cloud Provisioning Portal contains information about all
IT/Cloud Services available for consumption and deployment
 The Cloud Provisioning Portal is the part of the IT/Cloud Service
Portfolio that is published to customers, and which is used to
support the sale and delivery of services
 The Cloud Provisioning Portal includes information about
deliverables, prices, contact points, ordering, and request
processes

17
Why a Cloud Provisioning Portal Is Important
 Governance
• Permission to access and provision only your assets
• Provisioning affects capacity
 Provides request management
• Cost control
• Managing user expectations (service levels)
 Documentation
• Recording the who, what, why, and when a change happened (or did not
happen) to the infrastructure
• Viewing the stage and status of requests
 The Cloud Provisioning Portal makes it easy for enterprises and
other consumers of cloud services to use offerings in a formal,
normalized manner. It also drives consistency of the service
obligations and the units of measurement for services

18
Enhanced Self-Service with VMware Service Manager
 VMware Service Manager Cloud Provisioning enables the
consistent delivery of service catalog items through workflow
automation

19
Cloud Portal Service Catalog View
 The visibility of available service catalog items can be adjusted on
a per user basis
 Two mechanisms for filtering catalog items
• By organization
• By subscriber groups
 VMware Service Manager Cloud Provisioning organization is a
separate concept from a VCD organization

Compliance Process
Step 1
Create a rule group
Step 2
Create filters and rules
and add them to the
rule group
Step 3
Create a template and
add the rule groups to it
Step 4
Run the template
immediately or
schedule it to be run at
a later time
Step 5
Check the results
carefully and make
necessary adjustments
Step 6
Create exceptions
necessary to exclude
rules or systems from
being assessed in
particular conditions

vCenter Configuration Manager Integration Architecture
 vCenter 4.0 u2 and later
 VCM 5.5 configured to collect from
• vCenter or virtual machines
 vCenter Operations Manager 5.0
• Collects from the same vCenter instance
• IE (7, 8, or 9*) is required for launch-in-context
• VCM Adapter
• Pre-installed on vCenter Operations
Manager vApps
• Install separately for the non-vApp
(Enterprise Plus Linux or Windows installers)
 vCenter Operations Management Suites
• Enterprise Plus and Enterprise
• Enterprise can be enabled if a la carte full VCM functionality is added for some virtual
machines. Otherwise there is no guest operating system data to gather

* There are no known issues with IE9 in compatibility mode

44
vCenter Configuration Manager Architecture – Data Flow
1. VCM collects vCenter inventory and
configuration data using VI-SDK and
standing collection job, usually nightly
2. VCM collects guest operating system data
using VCM Agent and standing collection
job, usually nightly
3. vCenter Operations Manager VMware
Adapter collects vCenter topology,
performance and change data from vCenter
using VI-SDK every five minutes by default
4. vCenter Operations Manager VCM Adapter
collects vCenter guest OS change data from
VCM using JDBC connection
• Depends on  and  to complete for
success
• Every five minutes by default

vCenter Configuration Manager – Multiple Components
 Can I do multiple instances of the
components?
• Need multiple adapters
• 1 VCM Adapter per VCM
• 1 VMware adapter per vCenter
instance
 VCM collects from each
vCenter instance
 vCenter Operations Manager
registered for each vCenter instance
 Correlate data between VCM and
vCenter Operations Manager across
multiple vCenter instances
• Uses VCID (vCenter ID) and MOID
(vCenter Managed Object ID)
