Ensure that the compatibility data sets are up-to-date.
This issue may still occur, because there is the possibility that the data set might not fully reflect certain specific real world environment inventory/upgrade use cases.
In these scenarios, provided we have up-to-date compatibility data sets, the Upgrade Compatibility checks can be disabled using the steps provided in the workaround.
Workaround:
To disable the upgrade compatibility checks, follow the steps below:
- SSH into SDDC Manager appliance with the vcf user and su to root.
- Edit the file: /opt/vmware/vcf/lcm/lcm-app/conf/compatibility.flag
- Update the property vcf.compatibility.controllers.compatibilityCheckEnabled to false
- Save and close the file.
- Restart Lifecycle Management by running the command: systemctl restart lcm
Note: Re-enable the compatibility checks once the upgrades are complete to ensure guardrails are in place with respect to Bill-of-Materials compatibility for future upgrades.
