VMware Aria Operations returns 'Unknown adapter type' message when setting up a new adapter instance

Example of an 'Unknown Adapter Type' error message for an adapter with type/key 'Testserver'

If the pak file installs successfully but errors when creating an account (adapter instance), check that:

  • The Collector/Group the MP is running on is a Cloud Proxy, and
  • Check that the Cloud Proxy supports containerized adapters. Containerized adapter support is supported in VMware Aria Operations version 8.10.0 and later.

As of version 1.0.0, all connection-related elements from the project config file have been migrated to a new project connections JSON file(connections.json). As part of this change, both mp-test and mp-build will offer to migrate connection-related elements to the connections.json file when present in the config.json file (The new connections.json file is automatically added to the project's .gitignore to prevent sensitive information from being committed). Moving all the connection-related information away from the config.json file allows users to include their project configuration file in version control, making using the same container_repository for the project easier.

Note
  • mp-build and mp-init do not remove config.json from .gitignore, so users who want to share the project's config.json file must remove it manually.
  • If connections.json exists, the user will not be prompted.
