You can now create and manage the snapshot of a product to save product state at a particular point in time.
This procedure does not apply to snapshots of vRealize Automation 7.x database virtual machines. Snapshots of vRealize Automation 7.x database virtual machines must be taken manually rather than through vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager.
Managing snapshots are restricted to vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager version 8.6 triggered snapshots. If you trigger a snapshot directly, the snapshot is no longer managed in vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager.
Procedure
Results
Note:
vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager saves state and configuration details for the product's virtual appliance. For more information, see KB article
56361.
- The partial or inconsistent snapshot does not provide the revert option.
- You can rollback or revert a snapshot that you created during an upgrade or a scale-out in the Requests tab.
- When you deploy vRealize Suite products, a custom attribute is created on vCenter to support the snapshot inventory from vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager.
What to do next
After you create a product snapshot, you can revert the product virtual appliance to the state of the snapshot.
