You can use the default settings for all items, except that for Session mode, you must select Shared
Session from the drop-down list. The Authentication user name and password are local administrator
credentials for logging in to the Windows operating system of that virtual machine.
4 Run the Install vCO Customization workflow, located in the vCloud Automation
Center/Infrastructure Administration/Extensibility/Installation folder.
On the Stubs page of the wizard, set only the following items to Yes: WFStubMachineProvisioned and
WFStubUnprovisionMachine.
5 Add guest credentials by running the Add Guest Credentials workflow of the
Horizon vRealize Orchestrator plug-in.
This workflow is located in the Horizon/Configuration/Horizon Registration Configuration folder.
The guest credentials are the user name and password for logging in as an administrator or domain
administrator on the virtual machine.
6 Run the Manage Delegated Administrator Configuration for Registration workflow, located in the
Horizon/Configuration/Horizon Registration Configuration folder, to allow the delegated
administrator to use the guest credentials and have access to the datacenter and virtual machine folders.
7 Run the Manage Self Service Configuration for Registration workflow, located in the
Horizon/Configuration/Horizon Registration Configuration folder, to allow end users to use the
guest credentials and have access to the datacenter and virtual machine folders.

Log in to vRealize Automation as a tenant administrator and verify that an endpoint has been created
for vRealize Orchestrator and that its priority is set to 1.
On the Infrastructure tab, go to Endpoints > Endpoints, verify that vRealize Orchestrator appears in
the list of endpoints, and verify that the endpoint has the VMware.VCenterOrchestrator.Priority
property set to 1. For complete instructions, see the "Create a vRealize Orchestrator Endpoint" topic in
