Verifying a Custom vRealize Operations Manager Certificate
When you upload a custom certicate le, the vRealize Operations Manager interface displays summary
information for all certicates in the le.
For a valid custom certicate le, you should be able to match issuer to subject, issuer to subject, back to a
self-signed certicate where the issuer and subject are the same.
In the following example, OU=MBU,O=VMware\, Inc.,CN=vc-ops-slice-32 is issued by OU=MBU,O=VMware\,
Inc.,CN=vc-ops-intermediate-32, which is issued by OU=MBU,O=VMware\, Inc.,CN=vc-ops-cluster-
ca_33717ac0-ad81-4a15-ac4e-e1806f0d3f84, which is issued by itself.

Create a Node by Deploying an OVF
vRealize Operations Manager consists of one or more nodes, in a cluster. To create nodes, you use the
vSphere client to download and deploy the vRealize Operations Manager virtual machine, once for each
cluster node.
Prerequisites
n
Verify that you have permissions to deploy OVF templates to the inventory.
n
If the ESXi host is part of a cluster, enable DRS in the cluster. If an ESXi host belongs to a non-DRS
cluster, all resource pool functions are disabled.
