Add Tenant and IaaS Administrators from the Source
vRealize Automation 6.2.x Environment
You must delete and restore the vRealize Automation 6.2.x tenant administrators in each tenant after
migration.
Perform the following procedure for each tenant in the target vRealize Automation console.
Note If you migrate from a vRealize Automation 7.x environment, you do not need to perform this
procedure.
Prerequisites
n
Successful migration to vRealize Automation 7.3.
n
Log in to the target vRealize Automation console.
Procedure
1 Select Administration > Tenants.
2 Click a tenant name.
3 Click Administrators.
4 Make a list of each tenant administrator name and user name.
5 Point to each administrator and click the delete icon (Delete) until you delete all administrators.
6 Click Finish.
7 On the Tenants page, click the tenant name again.
8 Click Administrators.
9 Enter the name of each user that you deleted in the appropriate search box and press Enter.
10 Click the name of the appropriate user from the search returns to add the user back as an
administrator.
When you finish, the list of tenant administrators administrators looks the same as the list of
administrators you deleted.
11 Click Finish.
Set the vRealize Automation PostgreSQL Replication
Mode to Synchronous
After you migrate from a distributed vRealize Automation 7.3 environment, you can change PostgreSQL
replication mode to synchronous on both the source and target environments. After you upgrade from a
distributed vRealize Automation environment earlier than 7.3, you can change PostgreSQL replication
mode to synchronous on the target environment.
