              "4.2.3.3.0.25171318"
          ],
          "message": "Failed to retrieve component binary",
          "remediationMessage": "Connect to a valid depot and download the binary for component NSX_T_MANAGER version 4.2.3.3.0.25171318"
      }
  }

Environment

• VCF 9.0.2
• VCF 5.2.33
• NSX-T 4.2.3.3.0.25171318

Cause

This issue due to a mismatch between the version string included in the metadata of the NSX-T install bundle, which contains a hyphen, 4.2.3.3.0-25171318, and the version nomenclature expected by the SDDC Manager 9.0.2 workflow, which expects a full stop instead, 4.2.3.3.0.25171318.
