App definition shows double count of members in list but is correct in app definition detail

Products

• VMware Aria Operations for Networks

Issue/Introduction

The VMs included in the Application definition are discovered through a VMware Cloud on AWS NSX data source.

The Application definition shows a double count of members in the Application list. When you hover over the members count for the tool tip, it reveals the correct number of VMs and also shows the same number of physical IPs. The expected member count in the example below is 4 (not 8), with only VMs defined (not Physical IPs).

When drilling into the Application definition detail, it shows only the correct VMs and VM count associated with the Application definition and shows no Physical IPs defined and the Physical IP count is 0.

Resolution
