Panic Output

Error: error retrieving Org: error retrieving VDC 111111-vdcgroup: [ENF] entity not found
│
│   with data.vcd_nsxt_edgegateway.existing,
│   on main.tf line 22, in data "vcd_nsxt_edgegateway" "existing":
│   22: data "vcd_nsxt_edgegateway" "existing" {

Expected Behavior
I would have expected that minimal one EdgeGateway was found.

Actual Behavior
No EdgeGateway is found, unless we remove the gateway from DFW (remove it from VDC group).

Steps to Reproduce
Run this with an terraform plan

User Access rights
Tried with Organization Admin and System Admin

Hello,
This is a known issue as the provider is not yet ready to work with VDC groups. The next imminent release will introduce a resource to manage VDC groups and then our priority is to check interoperability of all resources that are capable for VDC groups.

[jeroenvermeulen-01]

Hi Didanius,
I was hoping by using the build g72daccf that this was already working, i have seen some changes on the VDC groups part. But if you can confirm that the needed code for this is not yet added to the master branch then i will test it on a later moment.

[Didainius]

@jeroenvermeulen-01 ,
Nope. We have time constraints so at first we only added resource to manage VDC groups. And I reckon it will not give many use cases because other resources do not work properly with them, but we have got to start somewhere. This will be released as intermediate step and we will work on automated tests for interoperability.

Sorry to say that - but stay tuned :) We know this is a needed feature and a priority now.

[jeroenvermeulen-01]

Thanks for the quick response.

Sorry to say that - but stay tuned :) We know this is a needed feature and a priority now.

We will, but like you mentioned, this is must have to use IAC and DFW with Cloud Director.

same issue:

When:

Terraform plan
Code:

terraform {
required_providers {
vcd = {
source = "vmware/vcd"
version = "3.5.0"
}
}
}

provider "vcd" {
user = var.vcd_user
password = var.vcd_password
org = var.vcd_org
url = var.vcd_url
vdc = var.vcd_vdc
auth_type = "integrated"
sysorg = "System"
max_retry_timeout = 30
allow_unverified_ssl = true
logging = true

}

data "vcd_nsxt_edgegateway" "t1" {
org = "GG"
vdc = "GG_VDC"

name = "ESG_GG_1"
}

output "edge_gateway_id" {
value = data.vcd_nsxt_edgegateway.t1.id
}

Do you have any idea when this will be fixed ? is there any branch i may use ?

[Didainius]

@storbel,
There is no branch yet, but you should see PRs coming soon as we build things for next release.

VDC Group support for NSX-T Edge Gateway was added by #793
