UCSD - Ultimate Namning Convention (Rolodex)

[Orf Gelbrich]

Task Name	Ultimate naming convention (Rolodex)
Description	Create VM name depending on many different variables
Prerequisites	Tested on 5.1
Category	Workflow
Components	vSphere 5.x
User Inputs	The variables are all listed in workflow properties. Custom drop down variables are also used

Instructions for Regular Workflow Use:

1. Download the attached .ZIP file below to your computer. *Remember the location of the saved file on your computer.
2. Unzip the file on your computer. Should end up with a .WFD file.
3. Log in to UCS Director as a user that has "system-admin" privileges.
4. Navigate to "Policies-->Orchestration" and click on "Import".
5. Click "Browse" and navigate to the location on your computer where the .WFD file resides. Choose the .WFD file and click "Open".
6. Click "Upload" and then "OK" once the file upload is completed. Then click "Next".
7. Click the "Select" button next to "Import Workflows". Click the "Check All" button to check all checkboxes and then the "Select" button.
8. Click "Submit".
9. A new folder should appear in "Policies-->Orchestration" that contains the imported workflow. You will now need to update the included tasks with information about the specific environment.

The host name is assembled from 3 List of Value Fields:
