The purpose of this article is to provide alternate method to bypass the SSO login screen when:
  • vRealize Opeartions Manager is configured to use SSO Authentication.
  • SSO Authentication Source is offline or inaccessible.


Environment

VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.1.x
VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.2.x
VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.7.x
VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.0.x
VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.6.x
VMware vRealize Operations Manager 7.0.x

Resolution

Note: Local Admin Access is required for troubleshooting or configuration needs
 

When SSO authentication is enabled, users are redirected to the SSO login screen to perform authentication.

To bypass the SSO login, you must use the URL:

https://IP or FQDN of vROps/ui/login.action?skipSSO=true  
Note: You should be able to login as the default admin account, or any configured local or LDAP account.
