Templates not visible while designing Blueprints

[Roger15]

Hi Team,

I have added my Vcenter endpoint to VRA. My cluster names are visible and am able to see all the datastores listed when planning a reservation.

Now I have given Data collection requests which is all completed.

When creating a new blueprint, say for example creating for a windows server 2008 deployment, On build information, I have provided for Clone as an Action, now when browsing Templates, it is blank.

Have tried marking the template as virtual machine and reverted back so that it gets re-registered to compute resources, but still I am seeing blank page.

Appreciate if anybody can help.

Thanks.

Hello Roger15,

Can you let us know what is the version of vRealize automation ?

Confirm whether you are using the right Fabric Group – Navigate to Infrastructure -> Compute resources, from here you can view the Fabric Group name. Once confirming the Fabric group name, ensure templates exists in the appropriate vSphere Cluster.

Run the vRA ‘Data Collection’ –> Infrastructure -> Compute Resources -> Compute Resources, Choose appropriate Compute Resource, choose‘Data Collection’, then click ‘Request now’ under ‘Inventory’.

If the above steps do not work, please post vSphere agent logs.

Something else to check:  If your templates are registered to a host in a separate cluster from where your workloads are deployed, you have to also add that management cluster into your compute resources and create a reservation. You can use the lowest priority for this. Without doing so, those templates will not show. Also, ensure your data collections are actually succeeding by looking at the Infrastructure log.

Hey Guys.

Actually I had this issue on Last Friday, when validating today found that issue is fixed and am able to see the templates successfully showing up when creating blueprints.

I guess the problem is it had got updated slowly though the Inventory synrchroization is been complete.

Thank you so much for your replies. I have done what was mentioned in your statements already.
