    First, join vCenter Server to domain

    Then configure Identity Sources.

    Error:invalid credentials

    Assign the following privileges to the user role:

    Datastore > Allocate Space

    Virtual Machine > Edit Inventory > Create New

    Virtual Machine > Change Configuration > Add New Disk

    Virtual Machine > Change Configuration > Add Existing Disk

    Virtual Machine > Change Configuration > Configure Raw Device

    Resource > Assign Virtual Machine To Resource Pool

    Hello,

    You have to go to Global Permissions -> Add Users or Groups (under the domain added to identity sources) & assign their Roles.
