In newer versions, when an Organization administrator tries to access an external network, they onboard or synchronize a virtual datacenter, they may get an error about like Cannot check if network urn vcloud network is external. This is because Abiquo needs to onboard or synchronize the external networks in the virtual datacenter.

To resolve this issue, add permissions to the Organization Admin role:

...

  1. Edit each enterprise that will work in a VMware vCloud Director region (provider VDC or org VDC)
    1. Go to Datacenters and drag the provider or region/s to the Allowed datacenters column
    2. Go to Credentials and select vCloud Director. Enter the organization administrator identity and credential.
      To associate the Org vDC with the Provider vDC in the platform, enter the VMware vCloud Director system user and password 


Optionally activate hardware profiles

By default VMware vCloud Director works with CPU and RAM values and administrators can activate Abiquo hardware profiles as in private cloud. See Hardware profiles.

Configure import of VMs

When the platform onboards a virtual datacenter, it can onboard the VMs into a single Abiquo VApp or multiple VApps, depending on the enterprise properties of each tenant.
