Deploying the OO Cloud Content Pack

Deploying the OO Cloud Content Pack

You can deploy the Cloud content pack 2.5.x on an existing OO 10.x platform version (10.80 is
recommended).
For details on deploying a content pack, see "Import content packs to a project" and "Deploy a content
pack" in the OO Use Guide.

NOTE:
Cloud Content Pack 2.5.x is dependent on Base Content Pack 1.6.x. Therefore, Base Content
Pack 1.6.x must be deployed before or together with Cloud Content Pack 2.5.x.

NOTE:
For details on how to uninstall/roll back a content pack, see "Roll back to the last deployment"
in the OO Use Guide.

Known Issues

Known Issues
For more information about known issues, visit Micro Focus Software Support Online
(https://softwaresupport.softwaregrp.com).

Some operations may not work as expected when support for self-signed certificates is
disabled.
It is possible that, when support for self-signed certificates is disabled in Operations Orchestration
(Studio, Central RAS), certain operations may not work as expected when attempting calls to target
host machines over HTTPS without providing SSL certificate information.
The operations located under /Library/Integrations/VMware/VMware vCloud folder may be affected.

The Rebuild Server and Change Server Admin Password fail on all scenarios due to the
sensitive data feature.
The Rebuild Server and Change Server Admin Password flows under
/Library/Integrations/OpenStack/Compute/Server Actions fail in all scenarios due to the sensitive
data feature.
As a workaround, deselect the following sensitive inputs:
l "adminPass" and "metadata" in the Rebuild Server flow
l "adminPassword" in the Change Server Admin Password flow
Deselecting these inputs enables the flows to run successfully, but also exposes the actual value of
these inputs during execution. Another workaround is to use OO Studio, versions earlier than 10.50.

New operations and sample added to Amazon have not been translated
The following operations were added to the Cloud content pack and are have not yet been localized:
l Library/Integrations/Amazon/EC2/Elastic Block Store/Volumes/Describe Volume Attribute.xml
l Library/Integrations/Amazon/EC2/Elastic Block Store/Volumes/Describe Volume Status.xml
l Library/Integrations/Amazon/EC2/Elastic Block Store/Volumes/Enable Volume IO.xml

Update translation for the moved JSON operation and remove empty elements
The Japanese translation is not updated with the new path of the Remove empty elements
operation that was under /OpenStack/Utilities and now it is in the Base content pack under /Utility
operations/Containers/JSON.

"OpenStack REST Get" operation has the encode error for the localized characters
Get IPSec Policy Details: /Library/Integrations/OpenStack/Networking/VPN/IPSec Policies/Get
IPSec Policy Details.xml has the same error for the first step OpenStack REST Get.

Limitations
Limitation: [Openstack] Get Auth Token samples
The old GetAuthToken operation has been deprecated and has been replaced by an operation with
the same name supporting OpenStack versions 2.0, 2.1, and 3.0.
The Create Web Server Rule Group sample flow that uses GetAuthToken has been adapted to
interact with OpenStack 3.0. As a consequence, the old sample flow with the same name does not
support OpenStack version 3.0 and is now deprecated.

Get Bucket Content

In the Get Bucket Content flow under /Library/Integrations/Amazon/S3/Buckets/, the input values
for marker and prefix must not contain the following characters: '&','/'.

Delete Object
The Delete Object flow under /Library/Integrations/Amazon/S3/Objects/ may not function correctly
when handling objects that have names containing the '~' or '&' characters.

Upload Folder
The Upload Folder flow under /Library/Integrations/Amazon/S3/Objects/ may not function correctly
when handling objects that have names containing the ',' (comma) character.
