Broadcom will obey that the VMware Cloud Foundation cloud console (VCF) will pass to a new Cloud Console VCF platform April 24, 2025And predict the release of the new VCF main version using a 9.0 meter at about the same time.
What is the impact:
During the transition Downtime is expected Two (2) Days (22 and 23 April 23). During this time:
- VMware Cloud Service (VCSP) partners will have access to the user interface of the current console in reading The API mode and existing operations will be available.
- Partners will not have access to use for their own or customers through the Cloud Console user interface.
- Partners will not be able to register any new URS VCF via UI Cloud Console UI.
- The use of an on-pm meter should continue to use the use of use data will continue to be collected by devices for meters of use and communicated to the cloud after registration of new deployment in new Cloud console VCF.
We strongly recommend that the partners download all reception messages from their VC meter instances before the outage period to ensure smooth operations.
What changes and what remains the same?
Several portals are associated with your VCSP Business Interactions with Broadcom, each of which serves specific purposes:
- Broadcom portal support: No change. This portal provides viewing and administration of contracts, increasing tickets to support and generate or modify the license keys. It also includes a portal consumption card depending on your roles and authorities.
- Partner portal: No change. This portal provides access to a partner -related documentation and an important update notification.
- VMware Cloud Foundation cloud console: Previously placed on Console.cloud.vmware.comThis portal for registration of meter and download measuring messages for VCF is moving to Vcf.broadcom.com.
- On-Premises VCF Usage Meter Appliance: This local measuring device will require upgrade to VCF Use Meter 9.0 Within 90 days of his release.
- Incorganized (using the engine meter): This reporting tool that combines the use of data for contracts will remain unchanged.
Action:
Within this update, existing VCF OSERS meters must be upgraded to VCF using the V9.0 meter (if generally induced) to integrate with its own OAuth application. This upgrade must be completed within 90 days of VCF release using a 9.0 meter. The upgrade process for the 4.7 and 4.8 Ben meter versions will begin by generating the OAuth application for your currently registration meter using VC, followed by a deployed upgrade to version 9.0, the old version of the meter will be required to upgrade to 4.6.1 and use the new OAuth application.
Steps to help you prepare right now::
- Verify the existing version of the meter and plan to upgrade the entire property to obtain compliance.
- Complete the VMware license keys to the Broadcom license keys to secure new The Cloud Console VCF platform captures the measured data because only active VCF will be migrated using the meter instances that communicate with Broadcom license keys.
- Stay up to date by searching for the VCSP Partnership Portal page and look for details below Updating Migration of the VCF console section.
- See the latest use of the Cloud Console Meter Cloud FAQ.
Looking forward to bringing you new VCF cloud platform to support your business goals. If you have questions in the meantime, contact your Broadcom representative.
