Checking Existence of Remote Collectors
Validation Failed. At least one Remote Collector found
Replace all Remote Collectors with generic Cloud Proxies
Aria Operations 8.x
VMware vRealize Operations 8.x
When the Cloud Proxy is available in Aria Operations Product UI, remove it from Product UI:
When the cloud proxy only appears in Admin UI, it must be removed using the CaSA API:
sed -nre "/CLOUD_PROXY/ s/^[^']+'([^']+)','([^']+)'.*/\1 \2/p" /storage/db/casa/webapp/hsqldb/casa.db.script
curl --insecure 'https://<OPS_IP>/casa/onprem/v1/cloudproxy/remove' -i -u 'admin' -X DELETE -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'Accept: application/json' -d '{"cloud_proxy_uuid":"<UUID>"}'
curl --insecure 'https://10.1.2.3/casa/onprem/v1/cloudproxy/remove' -i -u 'admin' -X DELETE -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'Accept: application/json' -d '{"cloud_proxy_uuid":"xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"}'
Do not attempt the below steps if the cluster is in any other state (i.e. Failed, Expanding, Shrinking)
Ensure you have a valid snapshot or backup of the vRealize Operations cluster before proceeding.
