How to add "Provider VDC" via HTML5 UI of vCloud Director 9.7 ?

legioon — Thu, 25 Apr 2019 12:07:31 GMT

Hi,

I have installed vCloud Director 9.7 and i am logging into to new portal using "https://CellIP/provider" url.

I have added vCenter Instance alone without NSX-V. Then I have added NSX-T because of I am using NSX-T on my vSphere Environment.

But, when i look at the provider VDC tab, I can't see any ADD button.( As i understand, this function is not working on new portal yet. )

BUT ! I can't see vCenter Resource when i tried to add Provider VDC via old Flash UI portal. Because, vCenter does not appear because of i added vCenter via HTML5. How can i fix this issue ?

in vCD 9.7 , the only way to add a Provider VDC that is backed by an NSX-T manager, is via the API.

To the OP, did adding it via API work even if you couldn't see the vCenter server in the inventory? i.e. if you query the API for vCenter server do you see it and thus were you able to add a Provider VDC?

The vcd-cli will also do the job .
