• Security Issues
  • After upgrade to vCenter Server 8.0, synchronization of password-protected subscribed content libraries might fail After upgrade to vCenter Server 8.0, synchronization of password-protected subscribed content libraries might fail due to missing security key details. In the logs, you see an error such as: javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Error finalising cipher data: pad block corrupted.This issue is resolved in this release.
• Networking Issues
  • LoadBalancers and Guest Clusters are not created when two SE Groups exist on NSX-ALB

    If a second SE Group is added to NSX-ALB with or without SEs or virtual services assigned to it, the creation of new supervisor or guest clusters fails, and existing supervisor clusters cannot be upgraded. The virtual service creation on NSX-ALB controller fails with the following error:

    get() returned more than one ServiceEngineGroup – it returned 2

    As a result, new load balancers are unusable and you cannot create new workload clusters successfully.

    For more information, see the VMware Knowledge Base article 90386.

Installation and Upgrade Issues

• vCenter Server update fails with error for failed load of repository manifest data If you set up a custom repository that has authentication and self-signed certificates that vCenter Server does not trust, updates and upgrades to vCenter Server 8.0 and later might fail. In the vSphere Client, you see an error such as Failed to load the repository manifest data for the configured upgrade after the upgrade precheck completes.Workaround: See VMware knowledge base article 90259.
• Miscellaneous Issues
• • You cannot revert configuration changes for the vmware-rbd-watchdog service When you use the TLS Configuration utility to revert configuration changes, the vmware-rbd-watchdog service does not restore back to the expected TLS protocols.Workaround: Use the argument -s <service-name> to individually call the rbd service, for example: root@sc1-10-168-175-98 [ /usr/lib/vmware-TlsReconfigurator/VcTlsReconfigurator ]# ./reconfigureVc restore -d /tmp/20221124T100959 -s vmware-rbd-watchdog
