Cause

This issue is most commonly caused when a package is created with only the 'v' allow operation.

Resolution

Prerequisites

  • Please take simultaneous non-memory snapshots of each virtual appliance(s) in the cluster.
    • Use the quiesce option for versions 8.9.x and above.
  • You have SSH access with root user and password.

Procedure

  1. SSH to the appliance using the root user account.
  2. Run the following command to connect to the vco-db
vracli dev psql vco-db
  1. Verify the workflow(s) that has the 'v' flag by running this query:
SELECT id,name FROM vmo_workflow WHERE allowedoperations = 'v';
  1. Update the workflow(s) that have only the 'v' flag to also have the 'e' flag
UPDATE vmo_workflow SET allowedoperations = 've' WHERE allowedoperations = 'v';
  1. Exit the Postgres database:
\q
  1.  Restart all the orchestrator pods:
kubectl -n prelude delete pod -l app=vco-app
  1. Monitor the restart progress until you have all the pods running:
kubectl -n prelude get pods -l app=vco-app -w
  1. Press Ctrl + C to cancel the watch command from Step #8.

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.
