9 Repeat Step 6 through Step 8 for each LDAP group to import.
10 Click OK to save your configuration.
The next time that autosynchronization runs, vCenter Operations Manager retrieves the members of the LDAP
groups that you selected and adds them to the mapped vCenter Operations Manager groups.
Stop Importing LDAP Users
You can configure the autosynchronization feature to stop importing LDAP users to a
vCenter Operations Manager group.
Prerequisites
Verify that you have the Import From LDAP access right.
Procedure
1 Select Admin > Security.
2 In the User Accounts pane, click the Import from LDAP icon.
3 Select the LDAP host and click Edit.
4 Select the Auto Sync check box to enable autosynchronization.
The Account Groups and LDAP Groups lists appear at the bottom of the window.
5 Click Load LDAP Groups.
vCenter Operations Manager populates the LDAP Groups list.
6 In the Account Groups pane, select the vCenter Operations Manager group.
7 Click the Remove Groups icon.
The LDAP Groups list shows all of the LDAP groups that were imported to the selected
vCenter Operations Manager group.
8 Select the LDAP group to stop importing to the selected vCenter Operations Manager group.
9 Click OK to save your configuration.
vCenter Operations Manager stops importing LDAP users to the vCenter Operations Manager group that you
selected. The next autosynchronization also removes any existing users from the selected
vCenter Operations Manager group.
Configuring User Groups and Access Rights
You can place each user in one or more user groups, and you can assign access rights to user groups. The access
rights that you assign to a user group determine the vCenter Operations Manager features that members of
the user group can use. vCenter Operations Manager provides several predefined user groups. You can also
create your own custom user groups.
Perform access rights-related tasks only when you are logged in as a user who has administrative privileges.
