Known Issues

The following issues affect the vSphere Integrated Containers appliance:

• Attempts to log in to vSphere Integrated Containers Registry from Docker fail with error 401 Unauthorized #891
  When you attempt to log in to vSphere Integrated Containers Registry, you see a 401 Unauthorized error, even though you have correctly configured the Docker client with the registry certificate and you have successfully logged in to that registry instance before. This issue can occur if the vSphere Integrated Containers appliance has experienced a hard reboot.

  Workaround: In the vSphere Client, restart the vSphere Integrated Containers appliance by selecting Power > Restart Guest OS.

• vSphere Integrated Containers appliance support bundle does not include Management Portal logs. #225
  Workaround: Download the Management Portal logs manually.

• dch-photon image is not present in default-project after upgrade. #769
  If you perform a fresh installation of vSphere Integrated Containers 1.2, the dch-photon image is present in default-project. If you upgrade vSphere Integrated Containers 1.1.x to 1.2, dch-photon image is not present.

  Workaround: Pull the vmware/dch-photon image from Docker Hub.

• Deployment of appliance fails if vSphere administrator user is not in the @vsphere.local domain. #771
  If your vSphere domain is not @vsphere.local, deployment of the appliance succeeds, but registration with the Platform Services Controller fails and vSphere Integrated Containers services do not start.

  Workaround: Create or use an administrator account in the @vsphere.local domain to deploy the appliance and register it with the Platform Services Controller.
