"The switch is part of a broader strategy by Broadcom to integrate VMware services into its own infrastructure. On the official VMware blog, the supplier announced at the end of August that it would complete the migration in early October. The plan was to put the existing portal into read-only mode on October 3 and to redirect to the Broadcom console on October 6 finally."
"In September, VMware announced the migration would start several times, but a cancellation followed each announcement. On September 21, the company announced that the transition would not go ahead. A new attempt the following weekend also failed. An email dated September 26 announced a shift to the weekend of September 26-28, with notifications even appearing in the portal itself that the migration was underway."
"According to VMware, all current settings, including identity and access management, API tokens, and permissions, will be transferred to the new environment. Users will not need to create new accounts, provided they meet Broadcom's authentication requirements. However, certain features will not be included in the initial migration, such as custom roles, project settings, and specific authentication restrictions. Previous migrations to Broadcom portals have caused user problems, including difficulties accessing licenses and broken links to knowledge base articles."
VMware has repeatedly postponed migration of its Cloud Services Portal to Broadcom's Cloud Services Console, missing multiple planned launch dates in September and rescheduling to October 3-6. The vendor plans to transfer identity and access management, API tokens, and permissions so users need not create new accounts if they meet Broadcom's authentication requirements. Certain features—custom roles, project settings, and specific authentication restrictions—will not be migrated initially. Previous migrations to Broadcom portals have caused access and license issues, broken knowledge base links, and security patch delivery problems for perpetual license holders, raising customer concern.
