VMware vSphere 6.7 is the latest version released by VMware and there are many enhancement and new features are available with this release. The major change for the vCenter Server Appliance is simplified architecture and all vCenter Server services are running on a single instance with all the function .With vSphere 6.7 new HTML5 client is available with may enhancements , VMware is working on to reach 100 % for all the functions are fully supported by HTML5 client .
In this post I am sharing configure vCSA6.7 to an Active Directory Domain From HTML Client and other options available there ,additionally command to join , dis-join and verify domain status .
From Identify Sources Tab you can verify available domain and by default Only SSO and Localos will be available
Note:- You have to reboot the Appliance to apply the changes
When the appliance is back online it will be part of Active Directory domain but you have to the domain to identity sources
And you can view your domain is listed on the identity Source tab
Additionally you can do below configuration form same window
Next add a Permission from Active Directory
Navigate to the Object , here I choose vCenter – > Permission -> Select the “+” symbol to add permission
From User Option Select the Domain Name
Search the Desired Username
Select the desired Role and select the Propagate to Children Option and Click OK
Also you can perform joining to active directory from command line
#Command> shell
Join to AD using CLI
# /opt/likewise/bin/domainjoin-cli join [domain] [user name] [password]
Note:-As a security reason you have to add only username and it will prompt for password and it won’t be visible
Verify the Domain status form CLI
Dis-join from a Domain From CLI
