Operational Verification of Clustered Workspace ONE Access

Validate the operational state of the clustered Workspace ONE Access in
VMware Cloud Foundation
by performing the operational verification steps for user authentication, system health and integration with Active Directory.

Verify the Authentication in the Clustered Workspace ONE Access by Using a Local System Account

Verify that the clustered Workspace ONE Access instance is online and accessible by authenticating with the built-in
admin
account.
Expected Outcome
You can successfully authenticate in the clustered Workspace ONE Access instance by using the
admin
account.
  1. Log in to the clustered Workspace ONE Access instance at
    https://<clustered_workspace_one_access_fqdn>/admin
    as
    admin
    in
    System Domain
    .
  2. Verify that you see the
    Dashboard
    page.

Verify the System Health of the Clustered Workspace ONE Access

Verify the system health parameters for the clustered Workspace ONE Access instance in the system diagnostics dashboard.
Expected Outcome
The clustered Workspace ONE Access node has the expected values for all health parameters in the system diagnostics dashboard.
  1. Log in to the clustered Workspace ONE Access using the
    admin
    account and
    System Domain
    at
    https://<clustered_workspace_one_access_fqdn>/admin
    .
  2. On the main navigation bar, from the
    Dashboard
    drop-down menu, select
    System diagnostics dashboard
    .
  3. In the left pane, click the Workspace ONE Access instance and verify the dashboard parameters.
