Required Information Default Your Entry
Password for the vCenter Single Sign-On administrator account in
the default domain.
You must use the same vCenter Single Sign-On password name
when you install or upgrade vCenter Single Sign-On, Inventory
Service, vCenter Server, and the vSphere Web Client.
IMPORTANT Be sure to record the password. If you need to restore
the vCenter Single Sign-On configuration from a backup, the
restore process requires the password you enter for the original
vCenter Single Sign-On installation, even if you change the
password later.
By default, the password must have at least eight characters, at
least one lowercase character, one uppercase character, one
number, and one special character. See the vSphere Security
documentation for information about changing the password
policy. The following characters are not supported in passwords:
non-ASCII characters, semicolon (;), double quotation mark ("),
single quotation mark ('), circumflex (^), and backslash (\).
Site name.
Your name for the vCenter Single Sign-On site.
Partner host name. Required only if you are installing additional
vCenter Single Sign-On servers.
The partner host name is the DNS name of the existing vCenter
Single Sign-On server to replicate from.
