This issue is resolved in VMware NSX for vSphere 6.3.7, available at VMware Downloads.
Workaround:
To work around this issue, do not use invalid xml character in the NSX object while creating any object from the User Interface (UI).
XML Payload of NSX-v API supports character set supported by XML 1.0 standard. As per the XML 1.0 standard, the supported character range is
#x9 | #xA | #xD | [#x20-#xD7FF] | [#xE000-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#x10FFFF].
Notes:
- Usage of any non-supported character in API payload may result in XML parse error causing API to fail .
- While creating NSX object through the User Interface, any user input property of the object should contain only valid characters from the above mentioned character range. For more information, see Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Fifth Edition).
