Once you have installed and imported PowervRA, use Connect-vRAServer to connect to your vRA instance:
Connect-vRAServer -Server vra.corp.local -Tenant tenant01 -Credential (Get-Credential)
If your instance has a self signed certificate you must use the IgnoreCertRequirements switch:
Connect-vRAServer -Server vra.corp.local -Tenant tenant01 -Credential (Get-Credential) -IgnoreCertRequirements
