Did you add the Domain as an Authentication Source to SSO ?<br />
<br />
otherwise you will just be able to login with the SSO credentials, until you assign permissions and group to AD (Domain).

A new vcenter appliance is accessible using VMware credentials but we cannot logon using the &quot;use Windows session credentials&quot; option. &nbsp;the option to enable Active Directory is checked and the domain is entered. &nbsp;there is an existing vcenter appliance that does not have any logon issues and the new appliance was compared to that one. &nbsp;We cannot find any differences. &nbsp;If I try to add a permission in VMware I do not see the domain to allow me to add a group domain or user so I'm assuming it is not in synch with the domain. &nbsp;Where should I begin looking for the problem?

A new vcenter appliance is accessible using VMware credentials but we cannot logon using the "use Windows session credentials" option.  the option to enable Active Directory is checked and the domain is entered.  there is an existing vcenter appliance that does not have any logon issues and the new appliance was compared to that one.  We cannot find any differences.  If I try to add a permission in VMware I do not see the domain to allow me to add a group domain or user so I'm assuming it is not in synch with the domain.  Where should I begin looking for the problem?

Cannot logon to vCenter appliance with windows credentials

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
