Upgrade vRealize Automation 7.3.0 to 7.4 observations

$

We did a dry run upgrade of our Dev minimal install environment from 7.3-7.4.

This DEV environment was a fresh 7.3 build 6 months ago.

 

Initial identified issue was vRO stopped logging on workflows, which was resolved by the following (thank you poster).

https://communities.vmware.com/message/2762334#2762334

 

The upgrade proceeded to run extremely slow for about a day, before grenading itself.

The catalina.out filled itself to 5+GB, before blowing out the /storage/log partition on the appliance.

Deleted the catalina.out and rebooted.

Everything got ugly after that...

rabbitmq wouldn't start

composition-service - com.vmware.csp.component.cafe.composition wouldn't start.

 

Environment was fubar'd, had to roll back iaas and vra and databases.

 

Anyone have similar experiences?

vro upgrade 7.1 to 7.3

Hi everybody. just guessing if anyone came across this issue.

 

I initiated the upgrade using ISO on CD drive. (from 7.1.0.19093 Build 4755871   to 7.3.0.21553-5521409) the upgrade ended succesfully with no warning messages. After rebooting the server..

the main web page on 80 port and the one on 8321 (ssl) showed this message :

 

Estado HTTP 503 – Service Unavailable


Tipo Informe de estado

mensaje Current node is not ACTIVE! Server is initializing...

descripción El servicio requerido no está disponible en este momento.


Apache Tomcat/8.5.14

 

 

after a reasonble period of time the error was the same..

 

i don't see any errors on the console.. vco-server and vco-configurator are up and running with no issues...  local postgresql  is running fine as well...

 

i can loggin to control center  and i see the following when validating the configuration.

 

It seems it keeps saying it needs a server restart, despite i've done that 3 times.

also, the single node cluster configuration was changed to a default 1000 nodes configuration..so i changed that back to 1.. but it keeps saying that the server needs to be restarted... and after multiple restarts (services and shutdowns ) the message is the same and I cannot connect to the orchestrator port anymore..   :-(

 

 

Thanks in advance!

Deployment stuck at CustomizeOS - vRA 7.0.1

$
0
0

I've a deployment that is currently stuck at CustomizeOS, I've seen this issue before and uninstalling/re-installing the GuestAgent normally does the trick.

 

I'm using a different vCenter as the endpoint this time around but I think I have everything for that vCenter setup correctly.

 

I've checked both the VCACGuestAgentService.log and the GuestAgent.log ... both look okay.  The cert.pem file is there as expected. 

 

Is there anything else I should be looking at or missing ?

vRA 7.4 REST API - Sync directory = "not found"

$

0

Hello,

 

I'm trying to use the API call to sync a specific directory using this : vRealize Automation Identity Service API - VMware API Explorer - VMware {code}  (/identity/api/tenants/{tenantId}/directories/{id}/sync)

 

As {id}, I use the name of the directory I want to sync. I retrieved the name using /identity/api/tenants/{tenantId}/directories/ listing. This listing doesn't contains any "id" field, only "name" field...

But when I try to execute command to sync a specific directory, I get the following message (assuming "my.directory.name" as the directory I want to sync:

 

{

    "errors": [

        {

            "code": 10102,

            "source": null,

            "message": "Resource not found.",

            "systemMessage": "Cannot find a directory with domain name 'my.directory.name' in tenant 'vsphere.local'!",

            "moreInfoUrl": null

        }

    ]

}

 

Command is : /identity/api/tenants/vsphere.local/directories/my.directory.name/sync

 

Anyone have an idea ?

Or do I have to contact VMware support ?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

 

The deployed VM does't get an IP from the range I;ve specified, network configured correctly by mapping the targeted port group and the corresponding Network profile, IPs seem to be consumed inside the network profile page, but the VM gets APIPA address instead.

1) There is no "startup" option icon

2) There is no "Roll based access management" icon

3) There is no gear icon to logout from control center portal

 

B)  When I try to use vRO web based UI I am getting below error

 

Authentication provider was configured earlier properly. However, when I tried to reset via GUI or command line "/var/lib/vco/tools/configuration-cli/bin/vro-configure.sh reset-authentication" there is no effect.

A subscription of a deployment lifecycle?

$
0
0

Hello,

 

We have a use case in our team that we are not sure how to implement.

 

I'll try to explain in short:

 

- We need to be able to execute a vRO Workflow during a blueprint deployment (The blueprint consists of a single VM component and the user can choose up to 10 instances of the component to deploy).

- The workflow needs to receive as input the hostnames of all the machines deployed in the blueprint.

- The workflow needs to run after all the instances have passed the VMPSWorkflow32.MachineProvisioned state, but before the blueprint deployment has finished.

 

Right now we are using the event broker to run installs and domain configurations on single instances (using the "Machine provisoning" event topic in the Event Subscription), but it doesn't give us a view on the entire deployment, we need to somehow run a workflow in a phase somewhere between after all the machines have finished our configuration and before the machines are visible to the user.

 

Is there an event topic that can accomplish this case? or another way to manage to do it?

 

I thought of a way to do it but it requires us to save data into a database\vRO configuration element, and also to edit the workflow we run on single instances, it will work but it is kind of an ugly implementation, i thought i might ask here to see if there is a prettier way to accomplish this

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi

 

I am doing a deployment of VRA 7.2

I have used windows 2012 R2 standard  as AD and Windows 2008 R2 for Iaas server

 

All the service in VRA and Iaas server are up and running  and i am able to login successfully

 

I face issue when i try to add the directory from Administration > directory  .

 

I am using the Active Directory ( Integrated Windows Authentication ) and logged in to tenant using Tenant Administrator

 

I know my domain admin is correct because same i used to add other computers to domain.

 

But in this case when i try to add the directory i am getting the error

 

"Could not join domain: Error occurred while joining domain. Verify Domain Admin username and password is correct, and the username is the sAMAccountName."

 

I know the credentials are correct and have the the required priveledge

 

Any specific AD config i need to do here
