Symptoms:
  • User is unable to do anything on the environment due to service not being up and running. Pods with Init:ErrImageNeverPull error on one or more nodes can be seen. Execute in order to see the states of the pods

Environment

VMware Aria Automation 8.x

Cause

There might be different causes for this issue:
  • Ephemeral storage in Prelude is 100% of the disk
  • One or more of the storage Prelude disks are completely full or 80%+ full

(Disk /data is only 17% free, which is >80% used, which is a problem)
 
  • Node has been restarted due to unhealthy node status

Resolution

Steps to recover from this state:

  • Resize the affected disk and add to it at least 20GB, the more GBs added, the better
    • resizing happens through vSphere
  • Reboot the affected node and wait some time for things to go into normal state again (about 30-50 mins)


Alternative to the reboot is to execute the “/opt/scripts/restore_docker_images.sh” script on the affected node(s).

Environment VMware vRealize Automation 8.x Cause This issue has been identified where the problem appears when a single column Multi Value Picker or Data Grid is used. Resolution This is a known issue. There is a workaround.  Workaround: As a workaround, try adding one empty column in the Multivalue picker without filling the options. So we can add one more column without filling the value which will be hidden(there is a button in the designer page that will hide the column). This way the end user will receive the same view.
