更新说明

VMware Cloud Director 10.4 What's New

VMware Cloud Director version 10.4 includes the following:

• Networking Features

  Static Routing for NSX-T Data Center edge gateways. Both service providers and tenants can manually modify the routing table for an NSX-T edge gateway and to configure a static route within an organization VDC by specifying the network, next hop, and any specific networks or interfaces to which to direct traffic. If the specified next hop is part of an existing subnet that is associated with the edge gateway, you can specify a scope for the static route. A scope is an organization VDC network in which the next hop of the static route is located.

  Use static routing if you want to use a route that is not included in the routing table of your NSX-T edge gateway, or if you want to direct traffic trough a service edge gateway and a service interface, and to not use distributed routing. See Configure Static Routing.

  VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer (Avi Networks) Feature set configuration at the service engine group level. All Controller instances that you register with VMware Cloud Director are now licensed and deployed with the Premium (also known as Enterprise) feature set. As a service provider, you can choose to restrict a tenant's feature set to Standard (Basic) at the Service Engine Group level.

  VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer (Avi Networks) Standard feature set improvements for tenants

  • You can configure a single virtual service to use more than one port protocol.
  • You can configure multiple virtual services that are on the same edge gateway to be fronted by the same virtual IP address. The virtual services must use different ports.
  • You can use IPv6 for virtual IP addresses and for load balancer server pools.
  • You can configure a virtual service on the same subnet on which your load balancer is running.

• Fast Cross vCenter Server vApp Instantiation Utilizing Shared Storage

  This solution provides added flexibility for enabling fast instantiation of vApps from a catalog across vCenter Server instances. If a VMware Cloud Director catalog is backed by a VDC in vCenter Server A, instantiating a vApp from the catalog to a VDC backed by a cluster in vCenter Server B triggers a time-consuming OVF export-import process. In previous releases, the only way to avoid this was to ensure that the source and destination vCenter Server instances have shared storage, and the templates in the source vCenter Server reside on the same shared datastore where they are instantiated on the destination vCenter Server. Such configuration allows optimized copy of the templates, avoiding OVF export-import, and as a result leads to a significantly faster vApp instantiation. Starting with version 10.4, if vCenter Server A and vCenter Server B have a shared datastore and the templates reside there, VMware Cloud Director performs fast vApp instantiation to any destination datastore in vCenter Server B.

• Photon OS 3.0

  VMware Cloud Director appliance is now based on Photon OS 3.0 which brings improved security and upgraded OS packages.

• Service Accounts

  You can use VMware Cloud Director to create and manage service accounts for applications interacting with VMware Cloud Director. To provide continuous access to VMware Cloud Director, service accounts use OAuth refresh tokens instead of passwords. When using service accounts, applications cannot perform certain tasks and have only View rights for some resources, such as users, groups, roles, and rights. See Managing Service Accounts.

• Consolidated VM Console Proxy Endpoint

  VM console proxy traffic is now using the same IP and port as the VMware Cloud Director UI and API. In previous releases, the console proxy traffic used separate IP and port. The unified access point eliminates the need to manage an additional endpoint and certificate, and allows for SSL termination at the load balancer level. The VMware Cloud Director HTTP request log records the VM console traffic. You can enable the LegacyConsoleProxy feature, however, before enabling the legacy console proxy implementation, verify that your system configuration has the necessary console proxy settings and see After you enable legacy console proxy mode, the VMware Cloud Director cell on which you enabled the… and If you run the cell management tool's clear-console-proxy-settings command while legacy console pro….

• Enhanced trust management integration with vSphere

  VMware Cloud Director 10.4 enhances SSL connectivity to all vSphere infrastructure components, including ESXi, by incorporating the vSphere Certificate Authority (CA) into the VMware Cloud Director trust mechanisms which also affects previously added vCenter Server instances.

  IMPORTANT: Because of this enhancement to SSL connectivity, you must perform additional steps post-upgrade to ensure that VMware Cloud Director trusts all necessary vSphere certificates. Failure to perform these steps post-upgrade can disrupt the connection between VMware Cloud Director and vCenter Server instances.

  Follow the procedure outlined in the advisory that appears upon upgrade. See also KB 78885 and The VMware Cloud Director console proxy, uploading OVFs and media, and powering on a VM fail.

• VMware Cloud Director appliance certificate backup and restore

  1. In addition to HTTP and console proxy certificates, VMware Cloud Director Appliance backup includes a vcd_ova certificate and keys.
  2. VMware Cloud Director Appliance management UI supports optionally restoring the PostgreSQL and virtual appliance management UI certificates.

• IOPS Limits and Reservation Visibility Enhancements

  • Service providers can show or hide from tenants the IOPS limits and reservations on VM disks and named disks by using the new View Disk IOPS right. See Enabling the I/O Operations Per Second Setting.
  • VM disks and named disks views display both IOPS limits and reservations for each disk. VMware Cloud Director also returns the data in the corresponding API calls.
  • IOPS settings configured on a storage policy in vCenter Server appear in VMware Cloud Director named disk and VM disk views and in the corresponding API responses. By using the VMware Cloud Director UI, you cannot edit IOPS reservations and limits configured in vCenter Server.

• Catalog Enhancements

  1. If a catalog is subscribed to a published catalog, the synchronization of templates from the published to the subscribed catalog goes through a number of distinct steps. VMware Cloud Director now provides a detailed view of the currently running catalog synchronization task step and the progress percentage of that step. The currently running task step appears in the Recent Tasks panel and a more detailed view appears if a user clicks the Status of the item being synced. Distinct steps examples are: initializing library item sync, waiting for publisher to download files, transferring files from publisher to subscriber, importing OVF.
  2. When the catalog item synchronization task is at the Transferring files from publisher to subscriber step, clicking the task details shows the Active File Transfers tab where you can see the file transfer progress of individual disk files.
  3. If a catalog synchronization fails in file transfer phase due to VMware Cloud Director service restart or crash, when the cell restarts, the sync resumes from the previous transfer session, and VMware Cloud Director reuses the previously transferred content.
  4. If you deactivate the Automatically download the content from an external catalog setting of a subscribed catalog, at catalog creation, VMware Cloud Director does not sync the items within the catalog. VMware Cloud Director synchronizes only the item metadata. VMware Cloud Director synchronizes the VMDKs when you request a sync on each item. Moreover, if a publisher does not have the content downloaded, the catalog subscription with this option does not trigger download of VMDKs at the publisher side.

• API support for instantiating fenced vApp templates in NSX-T backed VDCs and for moving fenced vApps to VDCs backed by NSX-T Data Center

  You can use the VMware Cloud Director API to instantiate a vApp template that contains fenced networks into a VDC backed by NSX-T Data Center. You can also move a fenced vApp from a VDC backed by NSX Data Center for vSphere to a VDC backed by NSX-T Data Center.
