The adapter instance is added to the list.
vRealize Operations Manager begins collecting data from the vCenter Server instance. Depending on the
number of managed objects, the initial collection can take more than one collection cycle. A standard
collection cycle begins every ve minutes.
What to do next
If you congured the adapter to run actions, congure user access for the actions by creating action roles
and user groups.
Configure User Access for Actions
To ensure that users can run actions in vRealize Operations Manager, you must congure user access to the
actions.
You use role permissions to control who can run actions. You can create multiple roles. Each role can give
users permissions to run dierent subsets of actions. Users who hold the Administrator role or the default
super user role already have the required permissions to run actions.
You can create user groups to add action-specic roles to a group rather than conguring individual user
privileges.
