Can vCenter SSO be added after the installation

jacksonp2008 — Tue, 12 Sep 2017 04:00:50 GMT

vcsa 6.5, SSO domain was deleted with the webUI so only local logins are functioning.

Would like to find a command line utility to add the SSO domain back in rather than re-installing the entire thing.

Many thanks

Thank-you Ashish

I'm running "VMware vCenter Server Appliance 6.5.0.10000" and it appears the 'rsautil' command is not in here.

root@vcsa [ /usr/lib/vmware-sso ]# ls

bin commonlib firewall vmware-sts

Mentioned KB article is valid only for 5.1 version, not applicable for 6.5

Can you explain how SSO domain has been removed in the Web Client?

In general, you are unable to remove SSO domain (vsphere.local by default) in the Web Client - delete Identity Source button is greyed out.

You are able to remove localos domain and any custom domain (Active Directory).

To recreate localos or custom AD domain, you just need to click Add Identity Source button.
