Issue/Introduction

Environment

VMware Cloud Foundation 9.x

Cause

The 9.0 CAP upgrade checks for the partnerBundleMetadata.json and vxrailPartnerBundleMetadata.json on the SDDC manager. If the files exists, the upgrade marks the environment as VxRail which is currently not a supported upgrade path. 

Resolution

  1.  SSH into the SDDC Manager with vcf and then elevate to root with su.

  2.  Remove the following files from the NFS share
    rm /nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundle/vxrailPartnerBundleMetadata.json
    rm /nfs/vmware/vcf/nfs-mount/bundle/partnerBundleMetadata.json
