@olivierlambert I'm not sure what else to tell you in particular. I just can tell you from VMware side what we do.
When triggern a VM deployment in vRealize Automation there are various event types, like: Pre Deployment, Pre Provisioning, Pre Power On, Post Power On, Post Provisioning, Post Deployment and so on.
Each event can tigger workflows in vRealize Orchestrator and passes some basic deployment information to the workflow. For example in Pre Power On we let a workflow trigger that registers the vm in RedHat Satellite.
RedHat Satellite is connected to vRealize Orchestrator as an REST Host with its REST Operations. The REST Operations can be used in the workflow.
Is it possible to do something like this with your tools? Are these enough informations?

RE: Workflow Tool
@john-c Yes I refer to this product.
Exactly, I'd like to know if there is something similar included in your tools or if there is a need of a third-party tool. -

RE: Workflow Tool
@olivierlambert In vRealize Orchestrator we use a bunch of custom workflows that run while deploying/undeploying VMs, e.g. to register/unregister a VM in Redhat Satellite or to create unique aliases that we add to a host record in Infoblox.

Workflow Tool
Hi guys, I'm curious to ask if Xen Orchestra comes with a solution for creating workflows like the vRealize Aria Orchestrator of VMware? Or is there a need for a third-party solution? Thx
