Some of the implementation steps for 3.0.2 are slightly different than those described in the 3.0 guides because due to the updated product versions. Be sure to read through the Content Updates section of the release notes. Here we’ve identified any notable changes to the implementation procedures to be aware of and apply as you read the guides.
As always, VMware makes available patches and releases to address critical security issues for several products. Please verify that you are using the latest security patches for a given component when deploying any VMware Validated Design.
* VMware Solution Exchange and in-product marketplace store only the latest versions of the management packs for vRealize Operations Manager and the content packs for vRealize Log Insight. This table contains the latest versions of the packs that were available at the time this VMware Validated Design was validated. When you deploy the VMware Validated Design components, it is possible that the version of a management or content pack on VMware Solution Exchange and in-product marketplace is newer than the one used for this release.
