    In an environment with an embedded Platform Services Controller, you manage the appliances that include both Platform Services Controller and vCenter Server


    Manage the Appliance with the Platform Services Controller Virtual Appliance Management Interface

    Mark, thanks for the clarification.

    As an FYI, I was unable to log into the VMware Management page as Administrator@xxx.local.

    I was able to log in after adding another account with administrator privileges to the Single Sign-On  SystemConfiguration.BashShellAdministrators group, although the Administrator account was part of the group.
