To create public cloud regions and also to give tenants access to the regions, you will require vCloud Director credentials.

You should be able to obtain these from your cloud provider or system administrator.

Credentials format

The username of the Provider administrator will usually be in the format: administrator@SYSTEM.
If you do not specify an organization, then the default is Provider administrator credentials.

The username of the Organization administrator will usually be in the format: user@ORGANIZATION_NAME user@organizationName

Create public cloud regions for vCloud Director

As each vCloud Director environment will have different regions (compared to AWS or Azure), you must enter credentials to retrieve the vDCs in vCloud Director in order to create public cloud regions in the platform. 

The platform can work with a Provider vDC or an Organization vDC as a public cloud region.

• If you use

  an Organization vDC

  organization administrator credentials, then the entire public cloud region will belong to a single tenant and represent a single Organization vDC.

• If you use administrator credentials, then the public cloud region will represent a Provider vDC,

  then for each tenant, you can add one Organization VDC per public cloud region

  and it can be used by multiple tenants, with their own organization credentials to access their Organization vDCs.

Use vCloud Director public cloud regions

To use a public cloud region in vCloud, you must add Organization credentials for the tenant.

When working with the PCR = public cloud region as a provider vDC mode, you should also enter the administrator credentials in order to tag the org vDC and know in which for the provider vDC it belongs (Org users cannot display the provider VDC). that it belongs to.

This is because the Organization vDC credentials do not have access to the Provider vDC details. 

If the same organization has more than a single org vDC in the same provider vDC, then the system administrator should use ''the vcd-system-region'' tool in order to tag a single vDC
