I deployed my first VCF 9 workload domain today using a 3 node cluster of MS-A2 9955x systems. The process was fairly straight forward, except you utilize the VCF operations appliance to deploy the workload domain instead of the SDDC Manager like in previous versions.
After the workload domain was deployed, I noticed that the vCenter name was listed as the workload domain name instead of the vCenter name. While this is just a cosmetic thing, I like having my vCenter name listed instead of the workload domain name. I wanted to provide a walkthrough on how to change this setting in case others wanted to change this as well to match their vCenter name.
First start by logging into the VCF Operations Web GUI, then expand Infrastructure Operations.
Click on Configurations
Then scroll down on the right side and click on Inventory Management under the Others section
In the left hand column on Inventory Management, expand Adapter Instances > vCenter
Click on the vCenter name you want to change and look for the Object Type vCenter in the Object column
Then click on the pencil icon to edit this entry
In the Edit Objects pop-up change the display name to match the vCenter and click OK.
The display will change for that vCenter and you after some time you will see this changed in the Licensing section and the connector for that vCenter in the Integrations page.
