Chapter 7 Configuring Cisco IAC With the Wizard
Setting Up Cloud Administration
Starting the nsAPI Agent
Step 1 From the Wizard, choose Start NSAPI Agent.
Step 2 On the Control Agents Tab of the Service Links portal, choose Retrieve OU ID on Name.
Step 3 Navigate to the page (it may be a few pages in).
Step 4 Click Start Chosen.
Step 5 Click Yes to confirm.
Step 6 Click Close.
Setting Up Cloud Administration
Adding a Cloud Administrator Organization
On the STEP 2 panel of the Cisco IAC Configuration Wizard, you create the home organization for
Cloud Provider Technical Administrators (CPTA). CPTAs manage cloud resources and services via
the service catalog. They have access to internal network and systems (underlying cloud infrastructure)
and onboard/offboard tenants.
Once you have set up the Cloud Organization, you are returned to STEP 2. At that time (after the Wizard
redisplays), the link for “Add Cloud Administration Organization” has been removed. This is to ensure
that you do not inadvertently run that task more than once.
Step 1 From the Wizard, choose Add Cloud Administrator.
Step 2 On the Add Cloud Administration form, enter the following:
• Cloud Admin Organization Name (required)
• Organization Description (optional)
• Company Abbreviation (required; maximum 4 characters)
Step 3 Click Submit Order.
Step 4 Click on the number in the Requisition Number field to display the details.
Step 5 Click Close when the status says Completed.
Note Monitor and refresh screen as needed. Only move on once you are certain that the process has
completed.
