Make sure to download the most recent metadata files and upload them to the SDDC Manager appliance before
downloading bundles. If you do not have the most recent metadata files, the metadata for most recent upgrades will be
missing and will impact the upgrades. The following metadata files are required: LCM manifest and VMware compatibility
data (For 5.0 or upgrade to 5.0), vSAN HCL data (For 5.1 or upgrade to 5.1). VxRail requires these additional metadata files:
VxRail compatibility data (For 5.0 or upgrade to 5.0) and partner bundle manifest (PBM).

  •  While trying to upload the bundle using the below command:

# curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1/lcm/bundle/upload -d '{"bundle":"/nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.tar","manifest":"/nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.manifest","signature":"/nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.manifest.sig"}' -H 'Content-Type:application/json'

The output stated that there were issues with the permissions for the files:

    • {"status": 500, "code": "Internal Server Error", "message": "INSUFFICIENT_BUNDLE_READ_PERMISSIONS; /nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.manifest file can not read
      by LCM due to insufficient permissions. vcf_lcm user must have read and write access to /nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles directory or upload bundle files from any dir
      ectory where vcf_lcm user have read and write access. "}

Environment

SDDC Manager 5.2.1

Resolution

  • Verify each folder within the directory /opt/vmware/vcf/lcm/lcm-tools/bin to ensure that the required permissions are correctly set and that no folder is missing necessary permissions
    • For example we see from the below that the lcm folder did not have the right permissions:
  • If there is any permission related issue, give the right ownership to the folder using the command:  chown -R vcf:vcf 
  • After making the above changes we see that the upload went through: 

root@XXXr [ /nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles ]# curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1/1cm/bundle/upload -d '{"bundle": "/nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.ta
r", "manifest": "/nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.manifest", "signature":"/nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundles/bundle-120815.manifest. sig"}' -H 'Content-Type: a
pplication/json'
{"uploadId": "fe6f730c-94d8-46cd-9255-f129a4bdc447", "bundleId": "a41faebe-c1d7-4beb-88ae-8bd6ffcfea87", "status": "VALIDATING", "startTime": 1750150022649}

  • Reboot the SDDC Manager if the uploaded bundle doesn't reflect on the SDDC Manager UI
