Before you can use the IBM® Storage Plug-in for
VMware vRealize Orchestrator on the vRealize Orchestrator (vRO) server side, you must delegate the
storage services that you want to make available for vRealize Orchestrator.
About this task
The services and their storage resources that you delegate on Spectrum Connect can be used for issuing volume workflows
through vRealize Orchestrator (for more information, see IBM Storage Plug-in for VMware vRealize Orchestrator).
Procedure
To delegate storage services to the vRO server:
On the Interfaces pane, click the vRO server to select it.
On the Spaces/Storage 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.
Right-click on a service that you want to delegate to the vRO server, and then select
Delegate to vRO, or click the Attach/Delegate button
on the service. The service color changes to indicate the successful delegation.
You can continue the
process by right-clicking available services under the current space.

The vRO server provides indication for the allocated and used storage space.
Allocated – amount of storage space available on all pools connected to the delegated
services.
Used – amount of storage space used by workflows on all pools connected to the delegated
services.
