Missing Column Data in the Set Memory for VM Dialog Box on page 64
The read-only data columns do not display the current values, which makes it dicult to properly
specify a new memory value.

Host Name Does Not Appear in Action Dialog Box on page 64
When you run an action on a virtual machine, the host name is blank in the action dialog box.
Actions Do Not Appear on Object
An action might not appear on an object, such as a host or virtual machine, because that object is being
managed by vRealize Automation.
Problem
Actions such as Rebalance Container might not appear in the drop-down menu when you view the actions
for your data center.
n
If a data center is managed by vRealize Automation, actions do not appear.
n
If a data center is not managed by vRealize Automation, you can take action on the virtual machines
that are not being managed by vRealize Automation.
Cause
When vRealize Automation manages the child objects of a data center or custom data center container, the
actions that are normally available on those objects do not appear, because the action framework excludes
actions on objects that vRealize Automation manages. You cannot turn on or turn o the exclusion of actions
on vRealize Automation managed objects. This behavior is normal.
If you removed the vRealize Automation adapter instance, but did not select the Remove related objects
check box, the actions are still disabled.
To make actions available on the objects in your data center or custom data center, either conrm that
vRealize Automation is not managing the objects, or perform the steps in this procedure to remove the
vRealize Automation adapter instance.
Solution
1 To allow actions on an object, go to your vRealize Automation instance.
2 Make the change in vRealize Automation, such as to move a virtual machine.
Missing Column Data in Actions Dialog Boxes
Data is missing for one or more objects in an Actions dialog box, making it dicult to determine if you want
to run the action.
Problem
When you run an action one or more objects, some of the elds are empty.
Cause
The VMware vSphere adapter has not collected the data from the vCenter Server instance that manages the
object or the current vRealize Operations Manager user does not have privileges to view the collected data
for the object.
Solution
1 Verify that vRealize Operations Manager is congured to collect the data.
2 Verify that you have the privileges necessary to view the data.
