Updating View Pod Connection Information
If the user credentials for a View Connection Server instance change, or if the members of a replicated group
of View Connection Server instances change, you must run the corresponding workflow in vCenter
Orchestrator.
You can navigate to the folder that contains these workflows by using the Orchestrator Client and going to
Library > Horizon > Configuration > View Pod Configuration.
n
If the credentials for the View Connection Server instance ever change, run the Update View Pod
Credential Configuration workflow.
n
If the names of the servers or the number of instances in the pod changes, run the Refresh View Pod
Connection Server List workflow.
Assigning Delegated Administrators to Desktop and Application
Pools
The administrator runs a workflow to delegate responsibilities to delegated administrators. If your setup
does not already contain a user group that has permission to register and update vCenter extensions, as well
as permission to execute workflows in Orchestrator, you must first create such a group.
Depending on your current setup, you might have already performed one or both of the first tasks.
Procedure
1 Create a Delegated Administrator Role Using vSphere Web Client on page 14
To use delegated administration, you must create a user group with permission to register and update
vCenter extensions.
2 Provide Access Rights to the Horizon vCenter Orchestrator Plug-In Workflows on page 16
After you create a delegated administrators group and assign it permission to perform actions on
vCenter extensions, you can give the group permission to view and execute workflows in
Orchestrator.
3 Assign Delegated Administrators to Pools on page 17
The administrator runs the Delegated Administrator Configuration workflow to set the scope of
delegated administration. For example, a certain delegated administrator might be limited to
performing operations on some pools, and a different delegated administrator might be limited to
different pools.
What to do next
Restrict permissions to various workflow folders in Orchestrator.
Create a Delegated Administrator Role Using vSphere Web Client
To use delegated administration, you must create a user group with permission to register and update
vCenter extensions.
If you have been using vCenter Orchestrator and have already created users and groups that have
permission to register and update vCenter extensions, you might not need to perform all the steps described
in this topic. For example, if you already have such a group, but the user who will manage View desktop
pools and application pools is not in the group, you can simply add that user to the group.
Prerequisites
Verify that you have credentials for logging in to the vSphere Web Client as a user with vCenter Single Sign-
On administrator privileges.
