Known Issues
5
This chapter includes the following topics:
n RBAC
n User Interface
n VNF LCM
n Workflows
RBAC
n Issue 3220059: If RBAC permissions are modified after creating the NF instance, accessing
the underlying NF catalogs and VIMs displays an error
After the NF instance is created, if RBAC permissions are modified to remove access for NF
catalogs and VIMs, then the underlying NF catalogs and VIMs are not visible to the user and
when the user tries to access them, an error is displayed.
Workaround:
Ensure that parent objects of user-owned objects are accessible to the user.
n Issue 3219731: RBAC advanced filter does not support filtering the Virtual Infrastructure by
Public Cloud types
RBAC advanced filter does not support filtering the Virtual Infrastructure by Public Cloud
types as shown in UI. For example, RBAC advanced filter is not available for Amazon EKS,
Amazon Cloud Services, Google Cloud, and so on.
Workaround:
Use the underlying VIM type for filtering Public Clouds. For example, use KUBERNETES for
Amazon EKS.
n Issue 3220592: The new VIM created by the VIM administrator is not seen in the search
result when the advanced filter is applied with the “name” condition
As a Virtual Infrastructure Manager (VIM) administrator, if you use the advanced filters with
the “name” condition to search for the VIMs, then the newly created VIM is not listed in the
search result.
VMware, Inc. 9
VMware Telco Cloud Automation 2.3.0.1 Release Notes
Workaround:
If there is a predefined list of VIMs in the advanced filter, add the new VIM name to the
predefined list.
n Issue 3220592: The new VIM created by the VI administrator is not seen in the search result
when the advanced filter is set with the “name” condition
If a Virtual Infrastructure (VI) administrator has an advanced filter with the “name” condition
to filter the VIMs, the VIM created by the VI administrator is not listed in the search result.
Workaround:
If there is a predefined list of VIMs in the advanced filter, then add the new VIM name to the
predefined list.
n Issue 3220705: Disassociating a VIM from the harbor from a user who is not a system
administrator leads to the removal of VIMs from that harbor
If a user who is not a system administrator disassociates a VIM from the harbor, all the VIMs
from that harbor are removed.
Workaround:
If you are not a system administrator with complete access to the VIMs, do not perform the
edit operations in shared partner systems.
User Interface
n Issue 3211123: When editing the CaaS v1 template, the "Next" button is disabled in the
"Control Plane Node Configuration" tab
Workaround:
To enable the Next button:
a Expand Advanced Configuration.
b Under Machine Health Check >> Node Unhealthy Conditions, remove the blank rows.
VNF LCM
n Issue 3220048: Additional operations are enabled if the Reset State operation is performed
when the Heal operation fails on the NF instance
Additional operations such as Operate, Upgrade Package, and Run Workflow are enabled if
the Reset State operation is performed when the Heal operation fails on the NF instance.

Created On do not work.
n Issue 3221536: Files uploaded during the execution of standalone Workflows are corrupted
If the file input is provided during runtime, when executing a standalone workflow, the file
gets corrupted.
Workaround:
Execute such workflows as part of the NF / NS catalog.
