Active Directory over LDAP. vCenter Single Sign-On supports multiple Active Directory over LDAP
identity sources. This identity source type is included for compatibility with the vCenter Single Sign-
On service included with vSphere 5.1. Shown as Active Directory as an LDAP Server in the
vSphere Client.
n
OpenLDAP versions 2.4 and later. vCenter Single Sign-On supports multiple OpenLDAP identity
sources. Shown as OpenLDAP in the vSphere Client.
n
Local operating system users. Local operating system users are local to the operating system where
the vCenter Single Sign-On server is running. The local operating system identity source exists only
in basic vCenter Single Sign-On server deployments and is not available in deployments with multiple
vCenter Single Sign-On instances. Only one local operating system identity source is allowed. Shown
as localos in the vSphere Client.
Note Do not use local operating system users if the Platform Services Controller is on a different
machine than the vCenter Server system. Using local operating system users might make sense in
an embedded deployment but is not recommended.
n
vCenter Single Sign-On system users. Exactly one system identity source is created when you install
vCenter Single Sign-On.
Note At any time, only one default domain exists. If a user from a non-default domain logs in, that user
must add the domain name (DOMAIN\user) to authenticate successfully.
For more information about vCenter Single Sign-On, see Platform Services Controller Administration.
