vCloud can change UUIDs for Catalog Items #14

Open tlawrence opened 7 years ago

tlawrence commented 7 years ago

It appears there are certain scenarios where vCloud Director will change the unique references for catalog items. BOSH uses these when looking up stemcells for deployments.

We have a ticket open with VMWare to understand if these are expected or not (it is unusual behaviour I think). If it is expected then we will need to update the CPI to reference the CatalogItems via Name rather than UUID.

Currently BOSH assigns a unique name to the stem cell when it is uploaded but does not save it anywhere.

This would need modifying for BOSH and also possibly for BOSH init / BOSH micro deploy.

Raising this issue in case anyone else has the issue. Will contribute or close in due course.
