Changing Catalog Storage Policy does not move vApp-Templates and Images

[vMarkusK1985]

Hello,

I have changed the Policy of the Catalog to the new Policy (there is a note that items will be moved) but nothing migrates to the new policy. Note: New Policy has the same Datastores.

Moving inidividual Items is not possible in to the same Catalog... to an other catalog it works.

Anyone else had this situation?

OK, Support has answered:

The text in the UI stating this happens is left over from an older release where changing the Catalog's Storage Policy moved the Catalog Items to that new Policy. This resulted in many issues with Catalogs and was found to be extremely disruptive to vCloud Director. The decision was made to remove this feature from the product but the text has been left behind, we are currently working on having this text removed form the UI as well as we have gotten confirmation from engineering that the feature will not be re-implemented.

Only Migration to a new Catalog with the nre Policy is possible.
