vCloud Connector - Unable to copy vApp from vCloud Director to vSphere

$
0

Evening,

 

Trying to copy a vApp from vCloud Director 5.6 to vCenter 5.5 using vCloud Connector 2.7.

 

The scenario:

- vCloud Director fully configured with one Org, one Org vDC and one catalog;

- Catalog is fully populated, shared and published;

- Org and catalog are configured to allow publishing to external organizations;

- vCenter and vCloud Director were successfully added to vCloud Connector throught the vSphere Client plug-in;

- vCloud Connector plug-in is able to see the entire vSphere and vCD structures (folders, orgs, catalogs, vApps, templates, etc).

 

Replicating the error:

- Using the vSphere Client, click the vCD Org;

- Go to the vApps tab;

- Select a powered off vApp;

- Click Copy;

- Select Catalog (it is marked as Shared and, oddly, as Unpublished);

- Select vCenter as target;

- Select Clusters, Folders, Datastore, disk format and so on;

- Power On vApp after deploy (or not, does not matter);

- Validate (Returns Success);

- Finish.

 

Task begins and fails within a minute (or less) with the following message:

 

"OVF export failed. Failure while copying data from cloud: https://<vcloud_director_fqdn>. Reason: [ 0e65fbc1-4e04-4924-ae06-c4377dfc97af ] There is no catalog in the organization."

 

Looks like vCloud Connector, for some reason, is unable to locate the Catalog during deployment (although it can be perfectly seen during the Copy wizard and within its inventory).

 

I tried searching for it and did not find anything similar to this error.

 

Perhaps it´s a vCD configuration error, but what could it be? I´ve already selected every kind of option to allow catalog publishing and sharing and nothing changed.

 

I also successfully published the vCD Catalog to the vCloud Connector Content Library, so nothing else makes sense to me.


Unable to download Vcloud suite

Hello All,

 

I am registered to attend the VCP-Cloud course in a couple of weeks and I was hoping to download a trial version of vCloud in my lab to get some hands on.

 

The issue is quite simple, I am unable to do download any version of Vcloud, I have tried the trial page which sends me to the demo videos or the vmlabs, I have tried to register to download all I get is a page does not exist.

 

I would really appreciate it if someone can point me to the right direction.

 

Thank you

A

Hi,

vCloud Suite is not a single product. It is a suite of products and is a single licensing bundle with a single key for all. So go ahead and download the individual components that you want. Sine there is no product as vClou Suite so you are not able to download any.

Hello,

You will not be able to download vCloud Director with your normal login unless you have a VSPP partner account. Reason behind it is, vCloud Director is EOL for general usage. It is available only for VSPP partners.

 

Also the new VCP-Cloud is based on vRealize Automation. So it is better that you download vRealize Automation and practice on that. Please check the BluePrint of the exam.

Anyone had an update from vmware on this?  It seems that vCloud Air != vCloud 5.6

Thank you for your quick response.

 

Can you please expand on the below statement? Are the 2 products similar?

 

So it is better that you download vRealize Automation and practice on that.

VMware vCloud Director was the solution/product which provided Cloud solution/layer on top of virtualization (vCenter + vSphere ESXi). This product is currently discontinued for general public and is available only for VSPP partners.

 

The new product/solution which replaced VMware vCloud Director is vRealize Automation. So now vRealize Automation is the product which provides Cloud capabilities on top of vCenter environment.

 

For details check the below links:

 

VMware vRealize Automation Cloud Automation Software | United States

For Certification: http://mylearn.vmware.com/mgrReg/plan.cfm?plan=46138&ui=www_cert

 

Please note that vCloud Director 5.1 Based exam is being closed on March 30th 2015.

 

Also note that vRealize Automation is the new name of VMware vCloud Automation Center.

 

So the new exam is based on vCloud Automation Center 5.2 and vCloud Director 5.5 Based Exam – Exam Code VCPC550

 

You can get the documentation for both in VMware documentations.

 

Hope this helps.

Thank you again for your quick response.

I am having the same issue with http://www.vmware.com/products/vrealize-automationVMware vRealize Automation Cloud Automation  I am assuming it's only available to partners.

 

I am getting confused with all this to be honest, EMC, Netapp, MS etc all provide trial software no problem, why does Vmware have to make it so hard?

 

Anyone from Vmware around to help?

 

Regards

Amine

Hi Amine,

You would surely be able to download the trial. But did you know that you can get hands on labs for free?

 

Go to --> http://www.vmware.com/products/vrealize-automation

 

Then click on "Try for Free". It will lead it to a form, fill up the form and you should have access to VMware Hands on Labs (HOL). Great way to get hands on the product.

 

For downloading the free trials : http://www.vmware.com/try-vmware.html

 

Otherwise at the top right hand corner you would get "MyVMware" link. Or go to Login - My VMware

 

Create a My Vmware Login and from there download the trials.

 

With the My VMware login you will be able to download all the products (including vCloud Director) for Evaluation.

 

By default all products comes with an evaluation period.

 

Please try the above, and if it still does not solve your problem then let me know exactly how you are trying to download the product?

Hi Enrique,


     Can you please confirm the user role on vCloud Director (Org Admin?) and also, if the catalog is a Public Catalog. If the catalog is a public catalog - and you are not an Org Admin, the operation will fail. vCloud Director, uses a catalog to hold the temporary vApp Template created during the export/download. The vApp is first converted to a template and then enabled for download. The error you are seeing is coming from the VCD, as it is not able to use the catalog to allow for downloading of the template. Only Org Admin is allowed to download vApp Templates from the Public Catalogs.


You could try to create a new Catalog (new Org Catalog and not a Public one), and select that in the Copy wizard. Let us know if this works.

Hi, Narenda.

The catalog is public and the user is Org Admin.

Using a different catalog results in the same behavior.

Is the catalog shared from another Org?

 

  • Attempts to download vApp templates from a shared catalog fail
    When you attempt to download a vApp template from a catalog that is shared from another organization, the operation fails. This issue is resolved in vCloud Director 5.5.2.1.

HI Amine,

It seems web page redirection is failing. Strange. What I can suggest is in MyVMware account log for a support ticket and raise the questions. Support should be able to solve the problem for you.

AMQP - Help!

Hi - I'm trying to configure AMQP to point to a RabbitMQ server using SSL (vCD 5.1).  It works fine with a username/password (non-SSL) over port 5672 but as soon as I choose SSL - "Accept all certificates" and change the port to 5671 it fails.  I have exported the certificates.ks from the Director cell and tried browsing and adding that in the "SSL Key store (JCEKS)" but it still fails to connect to the rabbit server over SSL.  Getting desperate now!  Any ideas anyone?

Thanks 

Locate VM

Hi

 

I have a VM which is showing within vCenter as being Managed by vCloud, but in vCloud I cannot locate it.

 

Is there any way to do a search against the vCloud for the VMs UUID or some other reference?  I've tried using a moref lookup against the vCenter Server but I can't seem to see anything in the results which confirm the location of the VM within vCloud.

 

Many thanks,

 

James
