Environment
VMware Aria Operations 8.12.x
Cause
An issue has been identified where the HTML text is not visible in the login banner in certain circumstances.
The login banner does not reset to default so if affected by this issue it is not possible to simply create a new banner message.
HTML formatting has been removed from the banner configuration and will be added back in a future release.
Resolution
There is no resolution at this time, please follow the steps outlined in the workaround.
Workaround:
Download and open the attached formattedText.htm file in a web browser.
Opening the file you will notice one line and the 'Login Message' text.
Copy the 'Login Message' text and paste it in the Content box when creating a login message in Aria Operation.
To create a Login Message go to Administration - Global Settings - User Access, scroll down to Enable and Edit the Login Message.
Type the required login message in front of the 'Login Message' text and then delete the 'Login Message', this will ensure the HTML formatting is saved.
