Corruption within the VMware Update Manager (VUM) database / patch-store XML metadata discrepancies.
Perform a reset of the VMware Update Manager (VUM) database.
Caution: Resetting the Update Manager database is a destructive task. Custom baselines (but not Cluster Images), custom download settings and manually imported patches/ISOs will be removed and will need to be reapplied following the reset. Before applying the steps below, take a backup or an offline-snapshot (in powered-off state) of the vCenter Server. If the vCenter Server is part of an ELM environment, take a snapshot or a backup of all vCenter Servers within the ELM domain. Note all of the custom configurations within Update Manager - e.g. proxy settings, third party download URLs, customized baselines, etc. - before proceeding.

Impact/Risks:
For environments where NSX-T is deployed, resetting the VMware Update Manager database will result in clusters configured with vLCM cluster images (steady-state clusters) to be unable to save or validate the image associated with them.
Do not reset the VMware Update Manager database if NSX-T is installed on a cluster where a cluster image is configured without the help of VMware Support.
