Introducing LCM VMware, Inc.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 10 VMware, Inc.
Understanding LCM 1 VMware vCenter Lifecycle Manager (LCM) automates the process of creating virtual machines and removing them from service at the appropriate time. Using LCM, you can perform the following tasks: n Handle and process virtual machine requests in a Web user interface. n Automatically place servers based on their location, organization, environment, service level, or performance levels. When a solution is found for a set of criteria, the machine is automatically deployed.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Figure 1-1.
Chapter 1 Understanding LCM Lifecycle Manager Terminology LCM uses specific terminology to describe lifecycle events and attributes. Commission The creation of a requested virtual machine. The commission time is submitted during the request process. Decommission The requested machine reaches the end of its life. A decommission date is submitted during the request process. The decommissioned machine can be archived or deleted.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide User Roles and Permitted Tasks Every LCM user role can perform a certain set of tasks. The LCM Administrator can perform all tasks. Table 1-1 describes how roles are mapped to tasks. Tasks marked with an O can be performed only by the owner of the request. Table 1-1.
Chapter 1 Understanding LCM Lifecycle Manager Architecture LCM is powered by VMware vCenter Orchestrator 4.1. Orchestrator is a development and process-automation platform that provides a library of extensible workflows for creating and running automated, configurable processes to manage the VMware vCenter infrastructure. You can use Orchestrator to create custom workflows that you can run from LCM.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Orchestrator Plug-Ins After you install LCM, you must configure the following Orchestrator plug-ins: n vCenter Server 4.1 For adding vCenter Server instances. n vCenter Lifecycle Manager For configuring the Lifecycle Manager database. n Networking For configuring the networking database. n Mail For configuring email notifications. 16 VMware, Inc.
2 LCM Installation Process You must install and configure LCM by using both the Orchestrator configuration interface and the LCM interface. Before installing LCM, you must install and configure vCenter Orchestrator. You must use the Orchestrator configuration interface to configure the components that are related to the engine, such as the database, network, server certificate, and so on. These components must be configured correctly so that LCM functions properly.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 18 VMware, Inc.
System Requirements 3 Your system must meet the technical requirements that are necessary to install and configure VMware vCenter Orchestrator and VMware vCenter Lifecycle Manager. Because LCM runs as an Orchestrator plug-in, the hardware requirements and the supported operating systems are the same for both products.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Supported Directory Services LCM requires a working LDAP server on your infrastructure. LCM supports these directory service types. n Windows Server 2003 Active Directory n Windows Server 2008 Active Directory n Sun Java Directory Server Enterprise Edition (DSEE) Version 6.3 Supported Browsers The LCM user interface requires a Web browser. You must use one of the following browsers to connect to LCM.
Installing and Configuring Orchestrator VMware, Inc.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 22 VMware, Inc.
Orchestrator Components Setup Guidelines 4 To enhance the availability and scalability of your Orchestrator setup, install Orchestrator on a server different from the server on which vCenter Server runs. Separating Orchestrator from vCenter Server makes it possible to adjust the operating system to meet the specific recommendations for each service.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide The way in which your database is set up can affect Orchestrator performance. Install the database on a virtual machine other than the one on which Orchestrator is installed. This method avoids the JVM and DB server having to share CPU, RAM, and IOs. Storing your database plug-ins in a database separate from the one that Orchestrator uses allows more modularity when upgrading the system.
5 Install Orchestrator You can install vCenter Orchestrator 4.1 only on a 64-bit operating system platform. If you run the installer in a 32-bit environment, the installation quits with a message stating that there was an error loading the Java VM. In production environments, and to enhance the scalability of your vCenter Orchestrator setup, install Orchestrator on a dedicated Microsoft Windows server. Prerequisites Make sure that your hardware meets the Orchestrator system requirements.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 7 Click Install to complete the installation process. 8 Click Done to close the installer. What to do next Check the status of the configuration service and start it if necessary. See “Check Configuration Readiness,” on page 28. 26 VMware, Inc.
Configuring Orchestrator 6 You must use the Orchestrator Web Configuration tool to configure the components that are related to the Orchestrator engine, such as network, database, server certificate, and so on. The correct configuration of these components ensures the proper functioning of Lifecycle Manager or any other applications running on the Orchestrator platform.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Check Configuration Readiness Before you start configuring Orchestrator, you can check whether the Web configuration service is ready. Procedure 1 In Windows, select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Services. 2 Select VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration. 3 If the status is not Started, right-click VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration and select Start.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator Change the Default Password You must change the default password to avoid potential security issues. Prerequisites The VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration service must be running. CAUTION To avoid potential exploitation of the administrative credentials, change the nonsecure password when you first access the configuration interface. Retaining the default password might cause serious security issues in a production environment and is a common cause of data breach.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Configure the Network Connection When you install Orchestrator, the IP address for your server is set as not set. To change this, you must configure the network settings used by Orchestrator. Prerequisites System administrators must make sure that the network provides a fixed IP, which is obtained by using a properly configured DHCP server (using reservations) or by setting a static IP.

Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 6 Click Startup Options. 7 Click Restart the vCO configuration server to restart the Orchestrator Configuration service after adding a new SSL certificate. The imported certificate appears in the Imported SSL certificates list. You activated secure connection between Orchestrator and your LDAP server. What to do next You must enable SSL on the LDAP tab in the Orchestrator configuration interface.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator 3 Define the User lookup base. This is the LDAP container (the top level domain name or organizational unit) where Orchestrator searches for potential users. a Click Search and type the top-level domain name or organizational unit. Searching for company returns dc=company,dc=org and other common names containing the search term. If you type dc=company,dc=org as a search term, no results are found.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 5 (Optional) To filter the attributes that the search returns, select the Filter attributes check box. Selecting this check box makes searching in LDAP faster. However, you might need to use some extra LDAP attributes for automation later. 6 (Optional) Select the Ignore referrals check box to disable referral handling. When you select the check box, the system does not display any referrals.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator Table 6-5. Encryption and Hashing Algorithms Algorithm Description Password Based Encryption (part of Java 2 SDK 1.4) Generates an encryption key from a password. PBE stores and checks the hash value of the password. For more information, see the Java Cryptography Extension Reference Guide on java.sun.com. Message Digest 5 algorithm Generates a 128-bit cryptographic message digest value, usually expressed as a 32 digit hexadecimal number.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 5 To build or update the table structure for Orchestrator, install or update the database. Option Description Install the database Configures a new database. Update the database Uses the database from your previous Orchestrator installation. After the database is populated, you can reset the database access rights to db_dataread and db_datawrite. 6 Click Apply changes.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator Server Certificate The server certificate is a form of digital identification that is used with HTTPS to authenticate Web applications. Issued for a particular server and containing information about the server’s public key, the certificate allows you to sign all elements created in Orchestrator and guarantee authenticity.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Create a Self-Signed Server Certificate Installing Orchestrator requires that you create a self-signed certificate. You can create a self-signed certificate to guarantee encrypted communication and a signature for your packages. However, the recipient cannot be sure that the self-signed package you are sending is in fact a package issued by your server and not a third party claiming to be you.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator What to do next You can import this certificate on other servers. Export a Server Certificate The server certificate private key is stored in the vmo_keystore table of the Orchestrator database. In case you lose or delete this key, or if you bind the Orchestrator server to a different database, the content of the exported packages signed with this certificate will become unavailable. To ensure that packages are decrypted on import, you must save this key to a local file.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 6 (Optional) Import your Orchestrator configuration. 7 Create a new self-signed certificate or import one. 8 Reimport your packages. a Click the Packages view in the Orchestrator client. b From the drop-down menu, select Import package. c Browse to select the package to import and click Open. d Click Import or Import and trust provider. e Click Import checked elements.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator 5 (Optional) To disable a plug-in, deselect the check box next to it. This action does not remove the plug-in file. 6 Click Apply changes. On the Plug-ins tab, the red triangle changes to a green circle to indicate that the component is now configured correctly. The first time the server boots, it installs the selected plug-ins. What to do next You can now configure the settings for Mail, SSH, and vCenter 4.1 plug-ins.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 5 Click Apply changes. The host is added to the list of SSH connections. 6 (Optional) Configure an entry path on the server. a Click New root folder. b Enter the new path and click Apply changes. The SSH host is available in the Inventory view of the Orchestrator smart client. Configure the vCenter Server 4.1 Plug-In Orchestrator uses the vCenter Web Service API to control vCenter Server.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator Remove a Plug-In You can disable an Orchestrator plug-in from the Plug-ins tab, but this action does not remove the plug-in file from the Orchestrator server file system. To remove the plug-in file, you must log in to the machine on which the Orchestrator server is installed and remove the plug-in file manually. Prerequisites Log in to the machine on which the Orchestrator server is installed.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide 3 On the vCenter Server License tab, enter the details about the vCenter Server host on which Orchestrator must verify the license key. a In the Host text box, type the IP address or the DNS name of the vCenter Server host. b In the Port text box, leave the default value, 443. c (Optional) Select the Secure channel check box to establish a secure connection to the vCenter Server host. d In the Path text box, use the default value, /sdk.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator A message states that the service is started successfully. The Orchestrator server status appears at the bottom of each configuration tab and is one of the following: n Running n Not available n Stopped To see the Orchestrator server status, update the page by clicking the Refresh link. What to do next You can save and export the Orchestrator configuration file so that it can be imported later if needed. See “Export the Orchestrator Configuration,” on page 50.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Unwanted Server Restarts You might experience unwanted server restarts if you have activated the service watchdog utility. Problem In certain circumstances, if the response time exceeds the watchdog timeout period, the watchdog utility can falsely detect a JVM error, which causes a server restart.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator Table 6-7. Settings Not Saved During Configuration Export File Description certificate Certificates are not exported. Most certificates are stored in the Orchestrator database. However, the vCenter Server certificate is not stored in the database. You must store it in a separate location, or import it again when you import an Orchestrator configuration. licenses Manually imported licenses are not exported. They are stored in the Orchestrator database.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Configure the Maximum Number of Events and Runs You can define the maximum number of events stored in the database and the maximum number of workflow runs. Each event corresponds to a change in the state of a workflow or policy and is stored in the database. When the maximum number of events set for a workflow or policy is reached, the database deletes the oldest event to store the new event.
Chapter 6 Configuring Orchestrator Change the Web View SSL Certificate Orchestrator provides an SSL certificate that controls user access to Web views, such as LCM. You can configure Orchestrator to use a different SSL certificate to control access to Web views. For example, you can change the LCM SSL certificate if your company security policy requires you to use their SSL certificates. Procedure 1 Create an SSL certificate by running the keytool Java utility at the command prompt.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Option Description ALL Events are not filtered. All events are written to the log file. OFF No entries are written to the log file and no log updates are made. NOTE The log displays messages of the selected level and all higher levels. If you select the INFO level, all INFO messages and higher level messages (INFO, WARN, ERROR, and FATAL) are written to the log file. 4 Click Apply changes.
Maintenance and Recovery 7 The Troubleshooting tab in the Orchestrator configuration interface allows you to perform several bulk operations related to workflows and tasks. You can use the Troubleshooting tab to globally reset the server and remove all traces of previous runs. Table 7-1 lists the possible bulk operations. NOTE Before you click a troubleshooting option, make sure the Orchestrator server is stopped. Table 7-1.
Lifecycle Manager Installation and Configuration Guide Change the Size of Server Logs If a server log regenerates multiple times a day, it becomes difficult to determine what causes problems. To prevent this, you can change the default size of the server log. The default size of the server log is 5MB. Procedure 1 Open the log4j.xml file. The log4j.xml file is in the following location: installation_directory\VMware\Orchestrator\app-server \server\vmo\conf 2 Open the log4j.
Chapter 7 Maintenance and Recovery Troubleshooting Orchestrator If you are unable to access the Orchestrator configuration interface or a Web view, such as LCM, you can try restarting the Orchestrator services to troubleshoot the situation. Restart the Orchestrator Server You can restart the Orchestrator server if you are unable to access LCM. Procedure 1 In Windows, select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Services. 2 Select VMware vCenter Orchestrator Server.
