Configuring SSO between the protected and the recovery site

Use the Symantec ApplicationHA SRM Components Configuration Wizard to configure the single sign-on between the protected and recovery site. You must launch this configuration wizard from the Symantec High Availability Console at the recovery site.

To configure the single sign-on

  1. On the recovery site, using the vSphere Client, connect to the vCenter Server and navigate to Home > Solutions and Applications > Symantec High Availability.
  2. On the Symantec High Availability home page, click the Disaster Recovery tab.
  3. On the Disaster Recovery tab, click Configure Single Sign-on.

    This launches the Symantec ApplicationHA SRM components configuration wizard.

  4. Review the prerequisites on the Welcome panel and then click Next.
  5. On the ApplicationHA Inputs panel, specify the required details of the Symantec High Availability Console and the vCenter Server at the protected site.

    The wizard uses these details to set up a link with the protected site virtual machines and the Symantec High Availability Console at the recovery site. This link enables communication with the guest virtual machines at the protected site.

  6. On the System Selection panel, select the virtual machines for configuring single sign-on.
  7. The Implementation panel displays the SSO configuration progress for each virtual machine. After the configuration process is complete, click Next.

    If the configuration has failed on any of the machine, refer to the log files for details.

    The log file is located on the protected site Symantec High Availability Console at the following location:

    %AllUsersProfile%\Symantec\ApplicationHA\Logs

    You may have to rectify the cause and repeat the configuration on the failed machines.

  8. On the Finish panel, click Finish.

    This completes the SSO configuration between the virtual machines at the protected site and the Symantec High Availability Console at the recovery site.
