VMware Aria Automation 8 includes these reservation considerations.

In VMware Aria Automation 8, reservations use cloud zones for compute policies, storage profiles to storage policies, and network profiles for network policies. These constructs are linked together using tags. In VMware Aria Automation 8, cloud zones are linked to one or more projects.

During reservation migration:
  1. The compute components are migrated as a cloud zone and assigned a tag.
  2. The storage components are migrated as one or more storage profiles and assigned the previously created tag.
  3. The network components are migrated as a network profile and assigned the previously created tag.
  4. The cloud zone is attached to the project.
Note: If the reservation contains a reservation policy, a capability tag is also assigned to the cloud zone to represent the policy post migration.
VMware Aria Automation 8 also introduces default storage profiles. When a migrated reservation contains multiple storage profiles, VMware Aria Automation 8 assigns one as a default storage profile. Before provisioning, ensure that the correct storage profile is selected as default. If it is not, select the check box next to the desired storage profile under the reservation.
Note: In vRealize Automation 7, Amazon reservations cannot configure storage placement policies. In VMware Aria Automation 8, the migration assistant tool does not create storage profiles during Amazon reservation migrations.
Note: Only enabled storage paths are migrated to VMware Aria Automation 8. Disabled storage paths are not migrated to VMware Aria Automation 8.
