 {
    "key" : "ops-li",
    "type" : "VCF_OPS_LI",
    "name" : "VCF OPS LI",
    "nodes" : [ {
      "name" : "VCF OPS LI_vrli-master",
      "addresses" : [ {
        "type" : "Fqdn",
        "value" : "###########"
      }, {
        "type" : "IPv4",
        "value" : "######"
      } ],

    } ],
    "secret" : JXJXJXJX"type" : "Credential",
      "username" : null,
      "password" : null
    }
  },

Resolution

Ensure there are no failed deletion tasks in the VCF Ops 9.x, if there is, please retry deletion task, and in case of task failing again, please open a new case with Broadcom support team.
In case of old deletion task is successful, please retry VCF Automation 9.x deployment.

Additionally, if the Error Code: LCMVROPSYSTEM30018 is tiggered while running Inventory Sync for VCF Automation (after deployment) then ensure that there is no corrupted component in Fleet Manager. If there is any corrupted component for instance VCF Networks, then resolve the issue with the affected component first and then tigger Inventory Sync for VCF Automation.
