Unable to share VM sizing policies to Tenant Organizations from the provider UI using the share button

Products

• VMware Cloud Director

Issue/Introduction

• In the Provider UI on the page 'Resources -> Cloud Resources -> VM Sizing policies -> [Policy Name]' when clicking the SHARE button it returns an empty list.
• Not all organizations are visible when trying to share VM sizing policy.
• Existing VM sizing policy cannot be shared with Tenants.
• Can only see sub provider organizations when sharing VM sizing policy.

Environment

VMware Cloud Director 10.6.1

Cause

This is expected behavior.

The 'share' buttons functionality is to share the VM sizing policy access to Sub-Providers organizations. The list of organizations returned when you click the share button will show Sub-Providers only. If you have no Sub-Provider organization created then you will see an empty list.

Resolution

To add a VM sizing policy to a Tenant Organization VDC follow the steps outlined in Add a VM Sizing Policy to an Organization VDC in VMware Cloud Director
