What to do next
To ensure that the Manager Service you installed is the active instance, verify that the vCloud Automation
Center Service is running and set it to "Automatic" startup type.
You can install another instance of the Manager Service component as a passive backup that you can start
manually if the active instance fails. See “Install a Backup Manager Service Component,” on page 89.
A system administrator can change the authentication method used to access the SQL database during run
time (after the installation is complete). See “Conguring Windows Service to Access the IaaS Database,” on
page 94.
Install a Backup Manager Service Component
The backup Manager Service provides redundancy and high availability, and may be started manually if the
active service stops.
Your IaaS deployment requires that only one Windows machine actively run the Manager Service. Machines
that provide the backup Manager Service must have the service stopped and congured to start manually.
I Simultaneously running an active Manager Service on multiple IaaS Windows servers makes
vRealize Automation unusable.
Prerequisites
n
If you previously installed other components in this environment, verify that you know the passphrase
that was created. See “Security Passphrase,” on page 30.

(Optional) If you want to install the Manager Service in a Web site other than the default Web site, rst
create a Web site in Internet Information Services.

Procedure
1 If using a load balancer, disable the other nodes under the load balancer, and verify that trac is
directed to the node that you want.
In addition, disable load balancer health checks until all vRealize Automation components are installed
and congured.
