Objective 2.3 – Configure vRealize Automation to consume NSX resources

VMware NSX  is the network virtualization platform for the Software-Defined Data Center we can use it in our vRealize environment to connect deployed VM to specific network or deploy new network devices from automation workflow.

To work with NSX we need to add the NSX endpoint and connect it with vCenter. To do that we need specific role for our user

IaaS Administrator Configure IaaS features, global properties. Create and manage fabric groups. Create and manage endpoints. Manage endpoint credentials. Configure proxy agents. Manage Amazon AWS instance types. Monitor IaaS-specific logs. Create and manage (view, edit, and delete) reservations across tenants if also a fabric administrator.

To add new Endpoint go to the Infrastructure –> Endpoints –> Endpoints

To add this we need to privide name NSX manager address and admin credentials

On Associations tab we are pointing the specific vCenter with our NSX should cooperate.

When everything is successfully configured we can collect data from Network and Security for our vSphere Compute Resource

And use this in Reservation

And in the blueprint
