How to configure vCenter Orchestrator without an AD/LDAP ?

Anyone can advice?

Thanks

Hi Seanie,

do you mean configuring vCO without any LDAP or without Microsoft-LDAP?

Without MS-LDAP, please specify which directory service you try (eDirectory or SUN).

In first case: You cannot configure vCO without any LDAP. Page 15, install & config guide for vCO 4.1

Orchestrator requires a working LDAP server on your infrastructure.

Orchestrator supports these directory service types.

• Windows Server 2003 Active Directory
  
  
• Windows Server 2008 Active Directory
  
  
• Novell eDirectory Server 8.8.3
  
  
• Sun Java Directory Server Version 6.3
  
  

Hope this would help you.

Regards, Andreas
