Re: Site to SIte VPN (between organizations) in vCloud 5.5, nothing happens!
vShield logs are not going to help since this problem is entirely VCD.I would just configure the VPN on each individual gateway using gateway to remote network (in VPN tunnel type dropdown). It's less...

Consolidate is done at the VM level, not the vApp level. At least that's true in the GUI level. In pure REST, consolidate is a POST command like POST...

View ArticleRe: vApp hangs after canceling a deployment
if shutting down all cells, then starting one doesn't fix it ... then we need to probably unblock it from the DB. please file a support request if you need to do the second option.
View ArticleRe: vApp hangs after canceling a deployment
We restarted vCD last Friday after COB and that resolved the issue. Luckily we did not need to play with the DB.

Hi There, Thank you for the reply, what I was looking for was the actual creator of a vm or vApp (I know that the customer concerned creates a new vApp for ever VM so vApp level would work). I know...

Thanks very much for the reply, I will try posting in the forum you mentioned!

I see, OK that makes sense to me thanks for the suggested work around pulling it out of the DB. I will see what we can come up with to accommodate their request. Many thanks,

Hi All, Hopefully this is a simple question, but I am missing something here. I've read in the vCAT that it is best practice to map a provider vDC to the entire cluster instead of using child resource...
View ArticleRe: Provider vDC / Cluster Resources
I'm not sure what vCAT part you are referring to. If you aren't using resource pools as providers, then a provider directly maps to a cluster in vCenter. The Speed/Memory performance is guaranteed at...

View ArticleRe: Provider vDC / Cluster Resources
if you only have one cluster, you won't have much choice. in your case, provider = cluster. Org vDC = Resource slice sold to someone, with a specific Storage Tier or Tiers.

Sorry, one more question. So it would be best practice for me to create a different Org vDC for each level of storage, right? So "Engineering - Tier 1" I would only include my Tier 1 storage, and...
