vCloud Director quarantine does not work

[magander]

Hi,

i'm having problem to activate the vCloud Director (vCD) quarantine function. I'm running the vCD version 5.1.2 and i have mark the checkbox "Enable upload quarantine with a timeout of xxxxx seconds" under system->administration General in vCD (see attached picture Picture-01.png).

When e.g. a ISO file upload is finished, the ISO file is immediately available for all users able to access the catalog where the ISO is uploaded (see attached picture Picture-02.png)

What am i missing here?

Thanks

Hi Magnus,

Seems like quarantine needs to be approved via JConsole, see VMware vCloud Director Documentation Center

Hi Andrii,

the files are not being held in quarantine meaning i do not see any files in the JConsole and the uploaded files are immediately available for usage.

OP is right. After finding this thread, I found this blog post by VCDX #56 - Magnus Andersson detailing the deprecation of the function and it's replacement with API calls.
