Methods
VslmLoginByToken(loginByToken)
Login to the VSLM service by using SSO token. VSLM will validate the user
token from the context. The delegated token passed as a parameter will be
used by VSLM to login to VC for authorization purposes.
Once login successfully returns, a new session is established for the
client. This session is only valid for the lifetime of the supplied
delegated token. Any calls made on a session which exceeds this lifetime
will result in a SecurityError. The client is expected to logout of the
current session and subsequently re-login with a new delegated token to
establish a new session.

Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| _this | ManagedObjectReference |
A reference to the
VslmSessionManager
used to make the method call.
|
| delegatedTokenXml P | xsd:string |
The delegated token will be retrieved by the
client and delegated to VSLM. VSLM will use this token, on user's
behalf, to login to VC for authorization purposes. It is necessary
to convert the token to XML because the SAML token itself is
not a VMODL Data Object and cannot be used as a parameter.
