This command runs the plan file.
/usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/updateSoftwareAgents.py -a <$DestionationVRAServer>
-t <$Tenant> -tu <$TenantUser> --plan_file /usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/plan
3 Use this command to update the Software Agent using the node file from step 1 and the plan file from
step 2.
/usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/updateSoftwareAgents.py -a <$DestinationVRAServer> -t <
$tenant> -tu <$TenantUser> --component_windows Software.WindowsAgentUpdate74 --component_linux
Software.LinuxAgentUpdate74 --plan_file /usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/plan --
plan_index 0 --node_file /usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/node --source_cloud_provider
azure --action plan_batch -S <$SourceVRAServer>
As an alternative, you can use this command to run one node at a time from the node file by providing
a node index.
/usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/updateSoftwareAgents.py -a <$DestinationVRAServer> -t <
$tenant> -tu <$TenantUser> --component_windows Software.WindowsAgentUpdate74 --component_linux
Software.LinuxAgentUpdate74 --plan_file /usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/plan --
plan_index 0 --node_file /usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/ROOT/software/node --source_cloud_provider
azure --action execute_node -S <$SourceVRAServer> --node_index <0 through n-1>
As you perform this procedure, you can tail logs from the vRealize Automation virtual appliance and
