Every once in a while when i login to my vCenter Orchestrator (vCO) 5.5 appliance, soon to be called vRealize Orchestrator (vRO), i find a lot of the the library content missing so a while back i decided to create a blog post about it when it happens next time. While logging in to my development vCO appliance today i only saw the following library content:
In the packages view i only saw the following packages.
To restore the original library content including the packages i take the following steps.
- log in to the vCO management server http://vCO-ip-addess:8283
- Go to the Troubleshooting section available form the left hand panel and click the link Reset current version
Click Ok to the confirmation popup
- Go to the Startup Options section available form the left hand panel and click the link Restart service
- Wait until the restart process is finished and login to the vCO appliance and all the library content and packages are back.
That simple:)
I understand this can be caused by my poor vCO appliance management since it runs as a VM on my MacBook meaning a proper shutdown is not that common….
I might create a SR in the future to see if a solution (apart from proper shutdown routines) is available so this can be avoided. If so, i’ll update this blog post.
