provisioning allocates billable resources required to start operating your vdc provisioning means that the infrastructure of your virtual data center is made available for use once all the changes to your virtual data center (vdc) have been completed, you can begin the provisioning process please note that this process cannot be undone an existing data center can be modified at any time note that the provisioning process cannot be undone your password will be requested to edit some elements as an additional security measure before starting provisioning, you will be alerted about any issues or errors and can review all changes as an additional security measure for critical changes, you must enter your password before provisioning can begin dcd verifies changes in the following ways before provisioning validation delta are there provisioning validation safeguards? dcd ensures a smooth provisioning process by checking the validity of new vdc configurations this is done before provisioning and while creating vdcs live validation identifies errors that would block the provisioning process and provides assistance with their immediate resolution errors and warnings that do not stop the provisioning process or messages requesting a password confirmation are not displayed dialog box the new configuration is checked for errors before starting the provisioning process for example, you receive notifications if default element names are unchanged the built in help function will assist you in resolving such errors select the delta tab in the provision data center to review all changes before starting the provisioning process a categorized list of changes is displayed as follows added deleted updated the authorization in dcd is based on the user privileges users inherit permissions and access privileges granted to the group or groups of which they are members how are user privileges assigned?
