Earlier Releases of the vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in for VMware Cloud Director

Features and issues from earlier releases of the vRealize Orchestrator plug-in for VMWare Cloud Director are described in the release notes for each release. To review release notes for earlier releases of the vRealize Orchestrator plug-in for VMware Cloud Director, see:

• vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in for vCloud Director 10.0.0.1

• vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in for vCloud Director 10.0

• vRealize Orchestrator Plug-in for vCloud Director 9.7

Known Issues

• New - Running the Add a Connection workflow results in a the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty error message when using the plug-in with vRealize Orchestrator 8.9.1 and later

  If you use the plug-in with vRealize Orchestrator 8.9.1 and later, an attempt to run the Add a Connection workflow fails with an error message.

  the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty

  The vco-server-app.log log file displays an error.

  java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty

  This happens because the vRealize Orchestrator plug-in for VMware Cloud Director utilizes the keystore of the local file system rather than the API offered by the plug-in SDK.

  Workaround:

  1. SSH into the vRealize Orchestrator appliance as root.

  2. To synchronize the local keystore with vRealize Orchestrator, run the command.

     Note: You must run the command after the workflow fails. Otherwise the certificate is not imported and is not synchronized.

  3. Run again the workflow for adding a VMware Cloud Director connection to the plug-in configuration.

• Existing workflow actions fail after upgrading the vRealize Orchestrator plug-in to version 10.3

  Existing workflow actions fail after upgrading the vRealize Orchestrator plug-in to version 10.3, because of the integration with the latest API schema.

  Workaround: Remove the action from the workflow and add the same action again, binding the parameters manually.

• Running the Upload Media workflow fails if you choose not to upload the media file to a catalog

  Starting with API version 32, uploading media directly to a virtual data center (VDC) is not supported. When you run the workflow, if you choose not to upload the media file to a catalog, the workflow fails.

  Workaround: When you run the Upload Media workflow, select Upload to Catalog and select a catalog in which to upload the media file.

• The Add a vApp with a New Virtual Machine workflow fails

  Starting with API version 32, the Add a vApp with a New Virtual Machine workflow is not supported. When you attempt to run the workflow, it fails with a METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED error.

  Workaround: None.

• Running the Upload a vApp Template workflow fails

  Starting with API version 32, uploading a vApp Template directly to a virtual data center (VDC) is not supported. The Upload a vApp Template workflow fails with a METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED error.

  Workaround: To upload a vApp, run the Upload a vApp Template to Catalog workflow.
