Hi Guys, we had to make changes to our storage infrastructure and during this process the datastores provided to VCD were recreated (but they got the same name as before and the former content was backuped and restored to the new datastore). Now we got several issues: 1.) The old datastores were still shown in VCD (the new ones are shown too with the same name) and can't be removed because there are still media files from a catalog associated with this datastores (seems like VCD stores the datastores IDs and doesn't care about datastore names). 2.) I can't delete these media files because they are associated with datastores that do not exist anymore, so VCD can't find these files on disk anymore. The error message shown in VCD is: Unknown name value for enum class com.vmware.vcloud.common.model.TaskOperation: VDC_COPY_RESOURCE_ENTITY - No enum const class com.vmware.vcloud.common.model.TaskOperation.VDC_COPY_RESOURCE_ENTITY Is there any way to get these files out of VCD, maybe directly via the database? I thought that at worse deletion doesn't work so they are moved to the "stranded items" folder and there I can force the deletion, but that doesn't happen in this case. - Christian

I think it would be much better to build a java port of the remote console client, that works on most operating systems (at least with reduced functionality), because a working VM console access with most browsers on common operating systems (Windows, Linux AND Mac) is an absolute and essential requirement for customer acceptance of the vmware vcloud solution. Even the last Web Developer/Designer realized that Windows-/IE-only solutions are no more state-of-the-art at least years ago, sad to see vmware still goes just this way (vSphere Client and vCenter for Windows only, Oracle Database needed for vCloud etc.) It is reasonable that no one can support every OS and every browser, but anyway there should be ways to get it working, even if it is not supported. I got the console client application running on Linux (downloaded and unzipped the vmware-vmrc xpi), but it is useless without the connection data given by the browser...
