What to do next
Conguring to use a proxy might aect VMware Identity Manager user access. To correct the issue, see
“Proxy Prevents VMware Identity Manager User Log In,” on page 137.
Console Steps for Initial Content Configuration
There is an alternative to using the vRealize Automation installation interface to create the conguration
administrator account and initial content.
Problem
As the last part of installing vRealize Automation, you follow the process to enter a new password, create
the congurationadmin local user account, and create initial content. An error occurs, and the interface
enters an unrecoverable state.
Solution
Instead of using the interface, enter console commands to create the congurationadmin user and initial
content. Note that the interface might fail after successfully completing part of the process, so you might
only need some of the commands.
For example, you might inspect logs and vRealize Orchestrator workow execution, and determine that the
interface-based setup created the congurationadmin user but not the initial content. In that case, you can
enter just the last two console commands to complete the process.
Procedure
1 Log in to the vRealize Automation appliance console as root.
2 Import the vRealize Orchestrator workow by entering the following command:
/usr/sbin/vcac-config -e content-import --workflow /usr/lib/vcac/tools/initial-
config/vra-initial-config-bundle-workflow.package --user $SSO_ADMIN_USERNAME --password
$SSO_ADMIN_PASSWORD --tenant $TENANT
3 Execute the workow to create the congurationadmin user:
/usr/bin/python /opt/vmware/share/htdocs/service/wizard/initialcontent/workflowexecutor.p
y --host $CURRENT_VA_HOSTNAME --username $SSO_ADMIN_USERNAME --password
$SSO_ADMIN_PASSWORD --workflowid f2b3064a-75ca-4199-a824-1958d9c1efed --
configurationAdminPassword $CONFIGURATIONADMIN_PASSWORD --tenant $TENANT
4 Import the ASD blueprint by entering the following command:
/usr/sbin/vcac-config -e content-import --blueprint /usr/lib/vcac/tools/initial-
config/vra-initial-config-bundle-asd.zip --user $CONFIGURATIONADMIN_USERNAME --password
$CONFIGURATIONADMIN_PASSWORD --tenant $TENANT
5 Execute the workow to congure initial content:
/usr/bin/python /opt/vmware/share/htdocs/service/wizard/initialcontent/workflowexecutor.p
y --host $CURRENT_VA_HOSTNAME --username $SSO_ADMIN_USERNAME --password
$SSO_ADMIN_PASSWORD --workflowid ef00fce2-80ef-4b48-96b5-fdee36981770 --
configurationAdminPassword $CONFIGURATIONADMIN_PASSWORD
