No new templates with v 2.18

Hello;

We just upgraded our AppVol Managers to 2.18.0. As with previous upgrades we also updated the templates. However this time we noticed that the templates included with 2.18 seem to be version 2.16. Is this correct? I have tried tracing back to what VMDK files are contained on the AppVol Manager servers and they are stamped with the correct date when we did the upgrade so I think everything is working. It was more of a curiosity question on whether VMware updated the templates since 2.16 or not. Anybody know???

Thanks!

Could be that there was no need to do that. Could try and create an SR for this.

Thank you for this, that's exactly what I was looking for. Seems like something is not working here with the templates being updated. I will look at an SR for this. Thank you.

Issue has been resolved. It turns out there's a bug when you upload the templates in the AppVol Manager, to a VSAN datastore, using the vCenter option. The workaround is to instead use the ESXi host option for uploading the templates, which resolved the issue for us. Thanks again for the feedback and hope this helps any others that face this issue.
