Description

Related to Back up OVF Properties of Protected Virtual Machines in the Protected VMware Cloud Foundation Instance Guide -

Command Backup-VMOVFProperties -server $sddcManagerFqdn -user $sddcManagerUser -pass $sddcManagerPass fails in case any of the Aria components is not installed/missing( vRSLCM, WSA, vROPS, vRA ).

Looking at the source, script seems to be looking for all Aria components' VMs and if it does not find anyone of them, process fails.

.

It would be really useful to adjust mentioned function so that it skips missing Aria components and does the job for anything that exists.

Use Case(s)

With this enhancement applied, it would be possible to extract OFV vApp properties without the need of having all Aria Suite deployed.
