Edit VM Dialog Shows Greyed out Save Button in VMware Cloud Director

Products

• VMware Cloud Director

Issue/Introduction

Unable to edit the virtual machine (VM) details since the Save button is greyed out.

Environment

VMware Cloud Director 10.5.x

Cause

The save button is grayed out when there is invalid configuration data in the Edit VM dialog box.

Resolution

Edit each field in the Edit VM dialog and ensure that they are correct and valid, including those that may be disabled and hidden.

The following is an example of an invalid configuration for Failed Boot Recovery Delay that was blocking the Save but was hidden when Failed Boot Recovery is disabled:

In this example, the Failed Boot Recovery Delay must be a whole number value and altering this to 0 corrects the behavior.
