Introduction In this series of posts, we will be taking a look at how to configure a Multi-Organization Tenancy (aka Multi-Tenancy) in vRealize Automation (vRA) 8.1. In this post, now that all the prerequisites are complete, we will “finally” start to configure vRealize Automation 8.1 to support Multi-Organization Tenancy. All the Multi-Organization Tenancy configuration is completed through VMware vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager (vRSLCM). I will cover how to upload the SSL Certificates created in the previous post into vRSLCM, then I will cover how to apply the new Workspace ONE Access SSL certificate to the WOA deployment for vRA 8.

I tend to rebuild my vRealize Automation (vRA) labs ALOT. I am currently lucky and have two environments, my vRA 8 homelab and my vRA Cloud org. I wanted a way to provide a consistent configuration to both environments. I had two options open in front of me: Use native REST API Use the Terraform Provider for vRA 8/Cloud As vRA 8 / Cloud is an API first platform, I could have definitely used the native API to complete the configuration I am looking to do.
