Issue/Introduction

This article covers the changes made in VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.14.1 from previous versions.

The following issues have been resolved as of vRealize Operations for Logs 8.14.1:
  • VMware Aria Operations for Logs cannot connect to a webhook server with a self-signed certificate.
You cannot integrate VMware Aria Operations for Logs with a webhook server that uses a self-signed certificate as the self-signed certificate is not trusted.
  • The triggered alert is listed in the history but not delivered to VMware Aria Operations and email.
After integrating the VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.10.2 version with VMware Aria Operations, when you configure an alert, add extracted fields to the alert query, and trigger an alert, the alert is not delivered to the email recipients and to the VMware Aria Operations user interface.
  • The first token in the vCenter Server logs is truncated when forwarded from VMware Aria Operations for Logs using the Syslog format.
If the VMware Aria Operations for Logs forwarder is configured to use Syslog forwarding, the first token in the vCenter Server logs may be truncated at the forwarding destination.
  • The test alert sent to a webhook URL fails because of basic authentication issues.
When you create a webhook of Custom endpoint type, add basic authentication to the webhook, and then test the alert, the alert fails. This happens when the credentials are rejected because of basic authentication issues.
  • While attempting to import archived logs, the import process became stuck and never reached completion.
When you are importing a large number of archived events back into VMware Aria Operations for Logs, the standard log importer tool fails, and displays a message such as
failed to import parsed messages from 0 to 1000 in the /var/log/loginsight/importer.log file.
Additionally, the importer does not take into account disk blocks or ingestion speed.

Environment

VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.14.x

Resolution

Prerequisites

  • Create a snapshot or backup copy of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs virtual appliance(s)
  • Obtain a copy of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs upgrade bundle .pak file for the release you are upgrading to
  • Verify that you are logged in to the VMware Aria Operations for Logs web user interface as a user with the Edit Admin permission. The URL format is https://log-insight-host, where log-insight-host is the IP address or host name of the primary node of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs virtual cluster.
  • Make a note of any nodes you are upgrading that are in maintenance mode. Ensure you take all nodes out of maintenance mode prior to the upgrade.  When the upgrade is finished, you may move them from the state Connected to Maintenance mode.
 

Procedure

  1. Click the configuration drop-down menu icon  and select Administration.
  2. Under Management, click Cluster.
  3. Click Upgrade from PAK to upload the .pak file.
  4. Accept the new EULA to complete the upgrade procedure.
 

What to do next

  • After the primary node upgrade process is complete, you can view the remaining upgrade process, which is automatic.
  • Check for the email sent to the Admin to confirm the upgrade completed successfully.
  • Remove the snapshots from the VMware Aria Operations for Logs appliance(s) within ~72 hours after a successful upgrade to avoid performance issues

Additional Information

Once the update is complete, delete the snapshots you made before the software update.
