Resolution

Note: VMware Cloud foundation must be at version 2.3.2.5 prior to starting this upgrade process.
  1. Download the following files:
bundle-8353:
  1. SSH to the SDDC Manager Controller VM as the root user.
  2. Issue the following command to create the /home/vrack/bundles folder:
mkdir /home/vrack/bundles
  1. Issue the following commands to set the proper ownership and permissions on the /home/vrack/bundles folder:
chown vrack:vfabric /home/vrack/bundles
chmod 777 /home/vrack/bundles
  1. Use a file transfer utility to copy the first set of files (bundle-8272) downloaded in Step 1 to the /home/vrack/bundles folder.
  2. Issue the following commands to set the proper ownership and permissions on the files copied in Step 5:
chown vrack:vfabric /home/vrack/bundles/*
chmod 777 /home/vrack/bundles/*
  1. Issue the following command to import the bundle files into LCM:
curl -k https://192.168.100.40:9443/lcm/bundle/upload -X POST -d '{"bundle":"/home/vrack/bundles/bundle-8353.tar","manifest":"/home/vrack/bundles/bundle-8353.manifest", "signature":"/home/vrack/bundles/bundle-8353.manifest.sig"}' -H 'Content-Type:application/json'

Note: You should see the bundle in a validating status in the SDDC Manager UI on the Lifecycle page.
  1. Once the bundle is available in the SDDC Manager UI, schedule the upgrade.
  2. When the upgrade is completed, repeat Steps 5 through 7 for bundle-7751 and bundle-7754. 
Note: The references to bundle-8353 in Step 7 will need to be replaced with bundle-7751 and bundle-7754.
