Orchestrator-8.7.0.ova Jun 2026
Version 8.7 of the Orchestrator brings significant improvements in stability, security, and functionality. Key highlights of this version often include:
| Issue | Solution | |-------|----------| | Deployment fails with “invalid OVA” | The file may have been renamed incorrectly (e.g., Internet Explorer saved it as a .tar file). Change the extension back to .ova before deployment. | | The VM boots but no IP address is shown in console | Your environment does not have DHCP. Log into the VM via the console (default credentials) and run the vendor‑provided script (e.g., ipsetup ) to assign static networking. | | Cannot access the Control Center (HTTP 404) | Verify that the FQDN you entered during OVA deployment is correct; it must be a fully qualified domain name. Also ensure that port 443 is open in your firewall. | | Authentication provider configuration fails | For vSphere authentication, ensure that the vCenter Server hostname is accessible from the orchestrator VM and that the orchestrator server is registered with vCenter Single Sign‑On. | | DNS resolution problems for cluster nodes | All FQDNs of cluster nodes must be resolvable via nslookup (both forward and reverse). Register each node in your DNS server before attempting to join the cluster. |
