List of issues resolved in this patch:
 
RowSummarySymptom
1Import vROPS validation for SSH enablement and ROOT credential validationvROPS any node SSH disabled and ROOT credential invalid for one of the node import was succeeding. We have resolved it in patch3 by failing the import request and asking user to enter correct ROOT credential on retry and enable SSH
2vRNI deployment fails with vCenter version 6.7u1 and abovevRNI deployment fails with "Duplicate element 'InstanceID'" with vCenter version 6.7u1 and above.
3Adding VMC NSX data Source to vRNI from vRSLCMAdding VMC NSX data Source to vRNI from vRSLCM fails
4Populate release status on post-release stub as part of multi-releaseCurrently, post-release pipeline running as part of multi-release is populating the request status instead of release status. Enabling post and pre-release, If the post-release is enabled and the background is disabled. We will be able to see the status as true or false in the content pipeline after applyinh the patch 3.
5 LCM is unable to import VROPS - blue Medora custom dashboards with super-metric as dependenciesUnable to capture the custom dashboard which contains super metric as dependencies.
6Error capturing vRA Composite Blueprint with component profiles as dependencies by enabling includeDependenciesCapturing the composite blueprint with dependencies of automation component profile in the LCM environment will cause this issue.
7Receiving an error when trying to merge changes to a blueprintMerging the blueprint is returning an error 405 for PUT. id 405799925 message 405 Method Not Allowed
8vRO package from a GitLab repository where a workflow name contains a hash "#"Content checkout will fail when the package name contains "#" character
9Periodic endpoint connection test, making the endpoint as inaccessible on failureThe endpoint status will be yellow whereas the endpoint is accessible
10vROps upgrade cannot be completed because vRSLCM doesn't allow option to force re-installation of existing pak and override the initial update attemptvROPS Upgrade will fail at uploading the .pak file, if the .pak is already uploaded.
11Pre-check shows failure for vRealize Operations Validations during upgrade to vROps 7.0 but upgrade is successful

When user imports the vROPS which has different root password for each nodes, then the upgrade pre check for vROPS fails due to invalid credentials.

Now we have fixed this issue during the import brownfield of vROPS, where the import brownfield of vROPS fails for each node which has different password and user has to provide the correct root password for each failed nodes as part of retry import brownfield request.

12Importing vROps environment does not pick up all information for remote collectors in another data center, so upgrade failsIf product components are spread across multiple vCenters and if all of the vCenters are not registered in LCM then any subsequent action on the imported product, that concerns each of the product components (upgrade of product, snapshot of the product) fails.
13Customer preparing for vRA upgrade to 7.5 - LCM incorrectly reporting Java version on IaaS nodes when running 7.5 pre-checkvRA upgrade pre-check does not consider major version of Java, so if minor version of the Java installed in iaaS VM is higher than that of the required Java version, upgrade pecheck shall pass but product upgrade shall fail.
14vRLCM - Error during vROps upgrade validation with no useful info, does not say which validation check failed

vROps upgrade validation fails without providing any details on which validation step failed. This does not inform user where to look and what to troubleshoot.

Here either SSH is disabled or vROps password is updated directly (i.e. not from vRSLCM)
