Obtaining Approvals for Create Virtual Data Center
When an Organization Technical Administrator submits a requisition for Order a Virtual Data Center, it goes the CPTA’s 
Cloud Service Approval Administrator queue for approval. The Cloud Provider Technical Administrator must assign a 
POD, cluster, datastore, and networks for the virtual data center, as part of the approval process.
1.
Choose Service Portal from the module drop-down list; then choose Cloud Operations > Approvals.
2.
Click the order number in the Order # column to create a virtual data center requisition that requires approval. This 
brings up the requisition form.
3.
Choose the POD that this virtual data center should be created on. The POD chosen should be based on the virtual 
data center size chosen and available capacity in the POD.
4.
Choose the cluster that this virtual data center should be created on. The cluster chosen should be based on the 
virtual data center size chosen and available capacity in the cluster. A single cluster can host multiple virtual data 
centers.
5.
Choose the datastore that this virtual data center will use. The datastore chosen should be based on the virtual data 
center size chosen and available capacity of the datastore. A single datastore can be associated with multiple virtual 
data centers.
6.
You can also change the CPU reservation in MHz for the virtual data center resource pool. The default value is based 
on the VDC Size chosen. This corresponds directly to the VMware resource pool CPU reservation.
7.
You can also change the memory reservation in GB for the virtual data center resource pool. The default value is 
based on the VDC Size chosen. This corresponds directly to the VMware resource pool memory reservation.
