Infinite Browser Refresh Loop Triggered by Deployment Filter in Aria Automation 8.18

Issue/Introduction

Users are experiencing an issue where applying a deployment filter in Aria Automation 8.18 causes an infinite reload or refresh loop in their browser. This issue persists across various browsers, including Firefox, Edge, and Chrome. The problem manifests when a deleted deployment is opened and then closed, leading to the browser crashing upon subsequent attempts to open other deployments.

Environment

Aria Automation 8.18

Cause

The issue arises due to a defect in the Service Broker component of Aria Automation. When navigating to the deployments list page with a saved filter selection, the system attempts to update the URL with the saved filter state as URL parameters. This behavior causes a conflict when the Service Broker UI is displayed within an iframe. A new navigation router event, triggered by manipulating the iframe's history, disrupts the flow of URL query parameters, leading to a continuous loop of URL updates and navigation events. This results in the observed browser refresh loop and instability.

Resolution

The engineering team has identified this behavior as a known issue and confirmed that the fix will be provided in VCF 9.

Additional Information

Repro Steps:

  1. Login to Aria Automation 8.18.
  2. Open Service Broker.
  3. Browse to Deployment.
  4. Click on the filter and enable the button for deleted deployments.
  5. Open a deleted deployment.
  6. Close the deployment.
  7. Attempt to open any other deployment.
  8. Observe the browser crash or reload loop.

Step-by-Step Explanation of Ballooning, Compression & Swapping in VMware

 ðŸ”¹ Step-by-Step Explanation of Ballooning, Compression & Swapping in VMware ⸻ 1️⃣ Memory Ballooning (vmmemctl) Ballooning is the first memory reclamation technique used when ESXi detects memory pressure. ➤ Step-by-Step: How Ballooning Works  1. VMware Tools installs the balloon driver (vmmemctl) inside the guest OS.  2. ESXi detects low free memory on the host.  3. ESXi inflates the balloon in selected VMs.  4. Balloon driver occupies guest memory, making the OS think RAM is full.  5. Guest OS frees idle / unused pages (because it believes memory is needed).  6. ESXi reclaims those freed pages and makes them available to other VMs. Why Ballooning Happens?  • Host free memory is very low.  • ESXi wants the VM to release unused pages before resorting to swapping. Example  • Host memory: 64 GB  • VMs used: 62 GB  • Free: 2 GB → ESXi triggers ballooning  • VM1 (8 GB RAM): Balloon inflates to 2 GB → OS frees 2 GB → ESXi re...

ESXi Host Troubleshooting Checklist

  🛠️ ESXi Host Troubleshooting Checklist (With Complete Log Locations) ✅ 1. Host Status & Connectivity Check host state in vCenter (Connected / Not Responding / Disconnected) Review CPU, RAM, and datastore usage Validate HA/DRS recommendations ✅ 2. Hardware Health Monitor hardware sensors (CPU, DIMMs, fans, PSU, RAID) Check RAID controller logs via vendor tools View hardware status in: vCenter → Monitor → Hardware Health DCUI → Hardware Status ✅ 3. Network Validation Verify vSwitches, Port Groups, NIC teaming, VLAN tagging Check vmkernel ports (mgmt, vMotion, iSCSI, vSAN) Test reachability using: Shell vmkping < IP > Show more lines Validate physical NIC status and link speed ✅ 4. Storage & Datastore Checks Confirm datastore accessibility Rescan storage adapters (iSCSI/FC/NFS) Validate multipathing (Round Robin / Fixed / MRU) Check datastore latency with esxtop ✅ **5.

  vCenter Troubleshooting Tips, Common Issues & Log Locations 🚀 1. General Troubleshooting Approach A. Check service health first For vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA): Shell https : / / < vcenter - FQDN > : 5480 Show more lines Go to Services → Health to verify: vCenter Server ESXi hosts vSphere Client DNS, NTP, DB connections vpxd, vpxd-svcs, vsphere-ui B. DNS & NTP checks vCenter is highly dependent on correct DNS & time sync. Check: Shell nslookup < vcenter - fqdn > nslookup < esxi - host - fqdn > Show more lines Time drift > 5 minutes causes: Login failures vpxd crashes PSC authentication issues C. Check storage/database health Slow DB/storage = UI slow, tasks hung. For VCSA: Shell df - h du - sh / storage / log / * / var / log Show more lines Free up space if partitions hit >80%. D.
