  • 1.  Can't discard vCenter Upgrade (RDU)

    Posted Aug 04, 2024 09:42 AM

    Several time tried to upgrade vCenter using RDU but anytime didn't succeed.

    Just upgraded a plugin and can neither configure target appliance (error with no text) nor discard upgrade workflow.

    Got an error: 

    Structure 'com.vmware.vcenter.lcm.deployment.migration_upgrade.status.task' has a union that is missing a required field 'end_time' for this case

    @XServerCloud

    Could you please share the environment details such as the source & target vCenter version, also do you have ELM or VCHA configured? Do you have a snip and where do you see this error ?

    Also experiencing this same issue. @XServerCloud did you figure this out?

    I'm also having this issue at one of our sites with the same error. I upgraded the patches in the manager portal, but in vcenter it thinks it's sill processing the update. Reboots have not resolved the issue. I have found if i mount or unmount the ISO, the vm crashes and the changes do not actually take affect. 

    Has anyone found a solution?

    No solution here. I opened a Broadcom support case and the support agent said that it 'may be fixed in a future release' and to just do upgrades via the CLI or via the management interface on port 5480 in the meantime…

    Unfortunately I have the exact same issue.

    updating with port 5480 with the ISO still works, but the problem remains

    hope that Broadcom wil fix this soon :(
