Aria Automation 8.18.x Change owner fails for deployments onboarded with attached disks

Products

• VMware Aria Suite

Issue/Introduction

• After onboarding deployments to Aria Automation 8.18.x, performing a change owner produces an error:

ClassNotFoundException: Provider for jakarta.ws.rs.ext.RuntimeDelegate cannot be found

Environment

• Aria Automation 8.18.x

Cause

• Resources in Catalog DB found that properties JSON for this entity does not have the projectAuthLink and ownerAuthLink properties set.
• This can be checked with running below command in catalog-db: 

select * from dep_resource_data drd where resource_id = '<resource_id>';

#resource_id is a disk, "ownerAuthLink": null, "__...", "project AuthLink": null

 

Resolution

         Fix : 

         This issue is Fixed in 8.18.1 however we need to perform the following steps to resolve the issue. 

• Initiate a fresh onboarding of VM/Deployment in Aria Automation 8.18.1 and perform the Day 2 action of 'Change Owner' . 
• A "Change Owner" Day 2 action will not work on a previously onboarded VM/Deployment prior to upgrading to version 8.18.1      

 

 

 

         Workaround : 

         This is a known issue and there are two workarounds available:

• Option A.
  • Change the project of the affected deployment (to a different or new project) --> change the project of the deployment back to the original project --> then perform the change owner.
• Option B.
• Manually update the ownerAuthLink and projectAuthLink in provisioning-db:
  • select * from disk_state ds where document_self_link = '/resources/disks/<resouce_id>';
    
    -confirm ownerAuthLink and projectAuthLink are null
  • update disk_state set project_auth_link = '<Project_Auth_Link>' where document_self_link = '/resources/disks/<resource_id>';
  • update disk_state set owner_auth_link = '<Owner_Auth_Link>' where document_self_link = '/resources/disks/<resource_id>';
  • select tenant_links from disk_state ds where document_self_link = '/resources/disks/<resource_id>';
  • update disk_state set tenant_links = '[<tenant_links_from_above_query_response> "<ProjectAuthLink>", "OwnerAuthLink"]' where document_self_link = '/resources/disks/<resource_id>';
  • Attempt to perform change owner.
• Option A is recommended.
