Verify that one vRealize Automation cloud provider is registered in Application Services. See Register
the vRealize Automation Cloud Provider and Template.
Procedure
1 On the Application Services title bar, click the drop-down menu and select Clouds > Deployment
Environments.

3 Complete the deployment environment information.
Option Description
Deployment Environment name and
Description
Include the reservation policy name in either of these text boxes. The text from
these text boxes appears in the Deployment Profile wizard under the
Deployment Environment column.
Cloud Provider If the cloud provider does not appear in the list, cancel the dialog box and select
Clouds > Cloud Providers to add the vRealize Automation cloud provider.
Reservation Policy Click Select to select from a list of reservation policies that the cloud provider you
selected provides.
Reservation policies in vRealize Automation that include auto in the name do not
appear in the reservation policy list. Rename the reservation policy so that it
appears in the reservation policy list.
If you select No reservation policy, vRealize Automation assigns a reservation
based on availability of resources.
4 Select a reservation policy and click OK.
A vRealize Automation reservation policy is mapped to the Application Services deployment
environment name.
5 Click Save.
6 (Optional) To change the existing information for a vRealize Automation deployment environment,
click Edit in the toolbar and make your changes.
For certain deployments, you can also edit the properties of the proxy settings. Changing these proxy
settings lets you access external data. Click Show to edit the following properties:
n
http.proxyHost
n
http.proxyPort
n
http.proxyUser
n
http.proxyPassword
If you do not edit the proxy setting properties, then the global proxy settings are considered.
When you create a deployment profile, you can select this deployment environment to deploy applications
to vSphere.
