User Statement:
As a UI engineer, I want to ensure the UI plugin installer works across all supported environments.
Details:
The plugin installer should work across all supported environments whether it's a vCSA or vCenter 6.5 instance, but the H5 Client plugin won't install against vCenter 6.5 without a web server serving the plugin zip file. Installing without a web server involves copying the plugin contents directly into the plugin cache folder of the vSphere (Web) Client, and this has worked for:
, but not H5 Client on vCenter 6.5. This approach is not recommended by the HTML SDK team and they suggested that we follow the standard plugin deployment procedure where there is a perpetual web server hosting the plugin zip file. To date, we don't have a web server for this use case, but soon once #4254 is done the zip file can be served inside the OVA appliance that also hosts Harbor and Admiral.
