Resolved IssuesvCenter Server registration script for setting up development environment sporadically fails On rare occasions the server-registration(.sh/.bat) script is unable to copy the development setup files to the folders expected by the local vSphere Client instance. Fix: The vCenter Server registation script copies all necessary setup files. Plugin Cards are missing from the secondary VM Summary page design The new VM Summary page design is a card container-based layout which is Off by default. It can be switched on by the user but does not support plugin cards yet. Fix: Plugin cards are shown when switching to the new VM Summary page layout. Known IssuesTwo portlets in the same plug-in cannot share the same URL. When a vSphere Client plug-in contains two portlets, they must specify different values for their attributes. Otherwise, a global refresh operation updates only one of the portlets. Symptoms: Global refresh updates only one of the extensions having the same URL. Workaround: Assign different URLs to the two portlets. For example:
Memory leak with Microsoft Internet Explorer 11. vSphere Client's memory consumption increases steadily when using Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 with iframes in vSphere Client plug-ins. This is a known general issue with iframes on Internet Explorer. Symptoms: Memory increases on IE11 with each opened plugin iframe leading to OutOfMemory error after some time. Workaround: Use other browsers supported with the vSphere Client, such as Chrome or Firefox. List of supported browsers includes Microsoft Edge version 38 and later, Google Chrome version 50 and later, and Mozilla Firefox version 45 and later. |
