Re: Blocking tasks for Edge Gateways in version 5.5

Hi,

I just found an interesting little thing. If I insert entries into the CALLOUT_TASK_BINDING table, so that I get something like:

select * from CALLOUT_TASK_BINDING;

CTB_ID                           TASK_OPERATION         ENDPOINT_ID

-------------------------------- ---------------------- --------------------------------

DCD82E25A04345F08EAB1CBE97386E3C NETWORK_GATEWAY_CREATE 0EF49589AE69461FB65FE6444F62E4F9

FF717F3DE87A40248BFE094DB08EAC9E NETWORK_GATEWAY_DELETE 0EF49589AE69461FB65FE6444F62E4F9

AB6861622EED4B189489B43AE9EECB04 NETWORK_GATEWAY_UPDATE 0EF49589AE69461FB65FE6444F62E4F9

and restart VCD.... lo and behold, I have functioning blocking tasks for the edge gateway. I created an EG using the GUI, and it sat there on "pending processing" until I unblocked it, the behaviour as expected from a blocking task. Ditto for deleting it.

This is starting to seem like a bug. I am using version 5.5.0.1323688. Please can somewhere from VMware confirm if this is indeed a bug and if I should submit a bug report?

Thanks,

Will
