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:

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.
