Design Question

Hey guys,

 

Is this something that is possible to do? Or is this a limitation of something i will have to work around or might be considered another product like vRA?

 

Background:

I have to maintain multiple datacenters with different domains and settings. The goal is to have a separate workflow for each site until a global setting can be established that does everything consistent that I would like, so for the time being i am just going to mimic what a VM creation takes to do.

 

Question:

I have a workflow that does everything i need for dynamic questions and the deployment of a windows VM for a certain company and location. Now i am trying to expand it to the next group which has its own location and VM settings, so to manage things i would like to break things into workflows (one big one per location). I would like to create a global a workflow that the operations team can just execute that asks certain questions about the domain and location and based on that knowledge than execute the correct workflow to present the dynamic inputs for more detail with. Does anyone know if this is possible?

 

Ex: I would like workflow A to ask:

 

Presentation:

VM Name

Domain

OS

 

If Domain & OS  = TestA & Windows than execute workflow TestA-OSWin - (User gets prompted with new presentation workflow creation).

 

I tried something like User Interaction in the vRO client and it does what i would like but when i execute the plugin from vCenter it will never give me a user interaction without having to manually answer each question on clicking the workflow.

 

Has anyone ever tried this? I poked around for answers but seem to be having a brain fart.

 

I am using the latest version of vRO.

Thanks for the help!
