NCD – Logging Into Navisite Cloud Director
Navisite Cloud Director (NCD) customers receive an email from Navisite entitled "Create your new account," which provides your Navisite Cloud Director username.
Alternatively, customers may receive NCD usernames via their system administrator.
Navisite Cloud Director usernames are in user@organization format, where:
- "user" is the name value created when the user is added to the system.
- "organization" is the vCloud organization name (usually a short version of your company name, assigned by Navisite).
Example: If your organization is "exampleco," a user with the name "jdoe" logs in by entering the username "jdoe@exampleco" and a password at the Login page.
Note: The username supplied in your email is not an email address. When logging into Navisite Cloud Director, enter the username exactly as specified in the email, or by your system administrator.
To log into Navisite Cloud Director:
- Using a web browser, navigate to https://director.navisite.com. The Login page appears.
- Enter your username and password values at the login page, and click Sign In.
Upon successful login, the Dashboard page appears.
Note: The system temporarily disables/locks your user account following five unsuccessful login attempts within a ten minute period. The Login page displays a message instructing you to either wait ten minutes before attempting another login, or to click a link to reset your password. Your account becomes unlocked if a system administrator updates the password with the system's user management facilities.
