1. Re: vROPS 8 Upgrade Bug?
sxnxr Oct 21, 2019 5:40 AM (in response to Soap01)I had a similar thing. It would seem that the upgrade to 8.0 runs the precheck as part of the upgrade now as well If the pre check fails on something the upgrade will also fail. it looks like you are failing on the same thing i was here is the end of the list you cant see. guessing it may be a browser bug
The strange thing for me was my admin account had not expired. I checked bu su admin on each host and it worked fine. I got around it by changing my admin password

Soap01 Oct 21, 2019 6:33 AM (in response to sxnxr)So I was waiting to post until I was for sure, but I had also discovered after looking at the logs it was getting hung up on the admin account even though it is not expired. I changed the account password in the LAB environment earlier this morning and the upgrade finally started. It's been running for a few hours now, longer than expected since this was a simple LAB deployment with not much data.

Soap01 Oct 21, 2019 6:55 AM (in response to Soap01)Here we go....
Upgrade to vRealize Operations Manager 8.0 fails due to the admin or root account password (75195)
"That is a known show stopper for the upgrade to 8.0, and there's 2 different "admin" accounts - one for the UI and one for the OS. They should both have the same password, but if you reset the admin password via the UI, I do not believe it changes it on the OS. "

Hoelzeli Oct 22, 2019 6:37 AM (in response to Robert ¯\_ツ_/¯)Hi Robert
Thanks for your reply.
/dev/sdc1 was empty after creation and then filled up in 1-2 minutes.
It's already running for about 4 hours, but I will wait until tommorrow morning. It's only my test-system.

ruchr Oct 24, 2019 4:24 AM (in response to Hoelzeli)Hello all!
yes, it´s probably a bug, but I managed to solve it.
Have you installed a custom certificate? It was my case.
Just follow this KB article to solve it: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2105229
After reloading the default certificate I was able to upgrade from version 7.5 to 8.0 without issues.
Note: the appliance will restart during the upgrade process. You will have to login again at the admin interface. It will continue on step 5 after the reboot.
When the installation is finished, you can reinstall your custom certificate.
Hope this helps. Also hope VMware to solve this.
