GUI – Attaching storage services to the vCO server

Before you can use the IBM® Storage Plug-in for VMware vCenter Orchestrator on the vCenter Orchestrator (vCO) server side, you must attach the storage services that you want to make available for vCenter Orchestrator.

To attach storage services to the vCO server:

1. On the Applications pane, click the vCO server to select it.
2. On the Spaces/Services pane, select the storage space from which you want to choose storage services. The available services that reside on the selected storage space are immediately displayed.
3. Click on a service that you want to attach to the vCO server. The service color changes to green to indicate the successful attachment.

   You can continue the process by clicking unattached services under the current space.

   

   The vCO server provides indication for the allocated and used storage space.

   • Allocated – amount of storage space available on all pools connected to the attached services.
   • Used – amount of storage space used by workflows on all pools connected to the attached services.
