About Logging In to vRealize Operations Manager
Logging in to vRealize Operations Manager requires that you point a Web browser to the fully qualied
domain name (FQDN) or IP address of a node in the vRealize Operations Manager cluster.
When you log in to vRealize Operations Manager, there are a few things to keep in mind.
n
After initial conguration, the product interface URL is:
hps://node-FQDN-or-IP-address
n
Before initial conguration, the product URL opens the administration interface instead.
n
After initial conguration, the administration interface URL is:
hps://node-FQDN-or-IP-address/admin
n
The administrator account name is admin. The account name cannot be changed.
n
The admin account is dierent from the root account used to log in to the console, and does not need to
have the same password.
n
When logged in to the administration interface, avoid taking the node that you are logged into oine
and shuing it down. Otherwise, the interface closes.
n
The number of simultaneous login sessions before a performance decrease depends on factors such as
the number of nodes in the analytics cluster, the size of those nodes, and the load that each user session
expects to put on the system. Heavy users might engage in signicant administrative activity, multiple
simultaneous dashboards, cluster management tasks, and so on. Light users are more common and
often require only one or two dashboards.
The sizing spreadsheet for your version of vRealize Operations Manager contains further detail about
simultaneous login support. See Knowledge Base article 2093783.
n
You cannot log in to a vRealize Operations Manager interface with user accounts that are internal to
vRealize Operations Manager, such as the maintenanceAdmin account.
