vRCS can integrate with an existing vRA for VM provisioning. Therefore, an endpoint needs to be created where external vRA endpoint-related details can be specified. This endpoint will be listed under the provisioning category while adding a task in a stage. This endpoint can support both shared account and per user session options. If an external vRA and vRCS links to the same SSO server, both options per user session and shared account are supported. However, if an external vRA has its own SSO server, only the shared account option is supported. This is because the identity federation between two SSO servers is not supported.
