Manage the accessible provider virtual data
centers
By default,
VMware Cloud Director
Availability
can
access all provider virtual data centers (pVDCs) that the VMware Cloud Director
instance manages. As a provider
, you can manage
the accessible provider VDCs for each VMware Cloud Director
Availability
instance.In a multi-site deployment when the
vCenter Server
instances are
in separate data centers but in the same SSO domain, the Replicator Service
tries connecting to all
vCenter Server
instances in
the SSO domain, even restricted provider VDCs. If this connectivity is not possible
to some remote vCenter Server
due
to network restrictions, navigating to System Health
in the
user interface can be slow and the logs can contain messages about connectivity
problems. - Log in to the management interface of theCloud Director Replication Management Appliance.
