RCA-V Setup Diagram

Steps

  1. RCA-V 2.0 upgrades ruby and system components. You must download a new appliance .ova and install and copy over the old configuration.
  2. Download the latest appliance. The link to the latest RCA-V release is in a file called “latest”. Download this file, open it and grab the URL to the latest release.
  3. Follow the steps found here, Download, Deploy, and Configure the RCA-V, up through RightScale Connectivity - vCenter.
  4. Login to the old release1.3 RCA-V admin UI and go to the Advanced section and copy the entire RCA-V config from the Cloud Configuration card into the same section on the release2.0 RCA-V admin UI.

Troubleshooting

Error: 'An error occurred: Error validating config: The 'See unowned VMs' option is improperly configured for the following zones. Configure the tenants so at most 1 tenant has the option checked per zone. Zone zone-iSCSI Cluster (id: domain-c7::group-p21) has conflicting tenants [test-us3-2, test-us3-2-1]. (status 400).'

Reason: RCA-V 2.0 only allows one tenant to have the 'See unowned VMs' option checked per zone. If you receive the above error, go back to the release1.3 RCA-V admin UI. In the tenants section, edit the settings of the list tenants and choose one to have the 'See unowned VMs' option checked. After this is complete, redo step 3 from above. If you get the error for a different zone and tenant list, repeat until all conflicts are resolved.
