In VMware Aria Automation, storage allocation techniques have a specific order of precedence to determine which configuration takes priority. The order of precedence is as follows:

A storagePolicy property on a disk: This setting has the highest precedence. If specified, it directly dictates the storage policy for the disk, overriding other storage settings.

A storage constraint tag on a machine: This setting has the next highest precedence and is used to enforce specific storage constraints for a virtual machine.

The preferred VMware Aria Automation storage profile: This setting has the lowest precedence and is used as a default storage profile when no other specific storage policies or constraint tags are applied.

Therefore, when these configurations are present, the storagePolicy property on a disk will override a storage constraint tag on a machine.

When creating a subscription in VMware Aria Automation Assembler, the two types of runnable items available for executing code are:

ABX Action (C): Action-Based Extensibility (ABX) allows users to write small pieces of code (actions) in various languages such as Python, Node.js, and PowerShell to handle specific events and workflows within VMware Aria Automation.

VMware Aria Automation Orchestrator Workflow (E): VMware Aria Automation Orchestrator provides a comprehensive platform for automating complex IT tasks and workflows. Workflows can be created and orchestrated to interact with various VMware and third-party systems, and they can be triggered by subscriptions to automate processes in VMware Aria Automation.

These runnable items enable the automation and customization of workflows and actions based on specific events and triggers within the VMware Aria Automation environment.

When synchronizing a new VMware Aria Automation template from a GitHub repository to a project in VMware Aria Automation, it's essential that the template includes specific metadata within its YAML code. The necessary metadata includes:

Name: This identifies the template uniquely within the system.

Version: This specifies the version of the template, allowing for version control and updates.

Without this metadata, the system cannot correctly identify and import the template, which results in the synchronization process failing to recognize the new template. By ensuring the YAML code of the template includes both the name and version, the administrator can successfully synchronize the template into the App-Dev project.

When usingcloudConfigin YAML for VMware Aria Automation, it is essential to properly format and align the configuration. ThecloudConfigsection should be aligned with other parts of the machine properties, such asimage,flavor, andnetworks. This ensures that the YAML syntax is correct and that the configuration is applied appropriately during the deployment process.

Proper alignment and indentation are critical in YAML files as they define the structure and hierarchy of the data, which must be correctly interpreted by the automation tools.

When there is a conflict between constraint tags at different levels, the project-level constraint tags take precedence over the template-level constraint tags. This ensures that governance and compliance requirements set at the project level are always enforced, overriding the constraints set at the template level.

Thus, when the template is provisioned, thelocation:londontag from the project will take precedence over thelocation:bostontag from the template.

To meet the company's policy and ensure appropriate placement of development and production workloads, capability tags should be applied as follows:

Add a capability tag to each public cloud zone, using env

as the key/value pair:This ensures that development workloads are tagged appropriately and can be identified and placed in the public cloud environments.

Add a capability tag to each vSphere cloud zone, using env

as the key/value pair:This ensures that production workloads are tagged appropriately and can be placed within the on-premises vSphere environment.

These actions ensure that the deployment policies align with the organization's requirements and provide clear differentiation between development and production environments.

When an error such as "Customization operation failed. Customization specification with name [vCenter_Windows] was not found" occurs during a multi-machine VMware Aria Automation template deployment, the administrator can identify the phase of the provisioning lifecycle and the specific machine for which the error occurred by navigating to theDeployments > Topologysection. The Topology view provides a detailed visualization of the deployment process, including the stages each machine goes through, allowing the administrator to pinpoint exactly where the error happened within the deployment workflow.
