# VMware vSphere Integration
## What is vSphere
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VCenter
!!! note ""
vCenter Server is the centralized management utility for VMware, and is used to manage virtual machines, multiple ESXi hosts, and all dependent components from a single centralized location. VMware vMotion and svMotion require the use of vCenter and ESXi hosts.
!!! warning
This requires passbook 0.10.3 or newer.
## Preparation
The following placeholders will be used:
- `vcenter.company` is the FQDN of the vCenter server.
- `passbook.company` is the FQDN of the passbook install.
Since vCenter only allows OpenID-Connect in combination with Active Directory, it is recommended to have passbook sync with the same Active Directory.
### Step 1
Under *Property Mappings*, create a *Scope Mapping*. Give it a name like "OIDC-Scope-VMware-vSphere". Set the scope name to `openid` and the expression to the following
```python
return {
"domain": "<your active directory domain>",
}
```
### Step 2
!!! note
If your Active Directory Schema is the same as your Email address schema, skip to Step 3.
Under *Sources*, click *Edit* and ensure that "Autogenerated Active Directory Mapping: userPrincipalName -> attributes.upn" has been added to your source.
### Step 3
Under *Providers*, create an OAuth2/OpenID Provider with these settings:
- Client Type: Confidential
- Response Type: code
- JWT Algorithm: RS256
- Redirect URI: `https://vcenter.company/ui/login/oauth2/authcode`
- Post Logout Redirect URIs: `https://vcenter.company/ui/login`
- Sub Mode: If your Email address Schema matches your UPN, select "Based on the User's Email...", otherwise select "Based on the User's UPN...".
- Scopes: Select the Scope Mapping you've created in Step 1

### Step 4
Create an application which uses this provider. Optionally apply access restrictions to the application.
## vCenter Setup
Login as local Administrator account (most likely ends with vsphere.local). Using the Menu in the Navigation bar, navigate to *Administration -> Single Sing-on -> Configuration*.
Click on *Change Identity Provider* in the top-right corner.
In the wizard, select "Microsoft ADFS" and click Next.
Fill in the Client Identifier and Shared Secret from the Provider in passbook. For the OpenID Address, click on *View Setup URLs* in passbook, and copy the OpenID Configuration URL.
On the next page, fill in your Active Directory Connection Details. These should be similar to what you have set in passbook.

If your vCenter was already setup with LDAP beforehand, your Role assignments will continue to work.
