Issue/Introduction

After successfully upgrading the SDDC from version 4.5.2 to 5.2.1 they  are currently unable to view any Bundles in the Bundle Management section. This issue is preventing them from proceeding to the next step 

 

Environment

SDDC 5.2.1

Resolution

Workaround-- Disabling the upgrade compatibility checks helps as a workaround.

To disable the upgrade compatibility checks, follow the steps below:

1. SSH into SDDC Manager appliance with the vcf user and su to root.
2. Edit the file: /opt/vmware/vcf/lcm/lcm-app/conf/compatibility.flag
3. Update the property vcf.compatibility.controllers.compatibilityCheckEnabled to false
4. Save and close the file.
5. Restart Lifecycle Management by running the command: systemctl restart lcm

Note: Re-enable the compatibility checks once the upgrades are complete to ensure guardrails are in place with respect to Bill-of-Materials compatibility for future upgrades.
