Announcing VMware Aria Automation 8.16.0 Release

Hi everyone, Happy New Year!

Hope all of you have had a warm and relaxing holiday with your family and friends.

As you may know, on November 22, 2023, the completion of VMware’s acquisition by Broadcom united two teams with a primary focus on engineering and a commitment to innovation. Working together, we are strongly positioned to empower worldwide enterprises in adopting private, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.

To learn more about our recent updates regarding the simplified offers and licensing model, please read:

Here comes the VMware Aria Automation 8.16.0 release, which includes the following new enhancements:

Access to the Public API for listing IaaS Events

Access to the IaaS Events list is now available for customers through the swagger API which makes it easier for users to get access to those APIs.

Rebuild day two actions at the deployment level.  

Following the release of rebuilding VMs as a day-two action on the VM level, Aria Automation now also supports rebuilding VMs at the deployment level. Users can initiate a day-two action to rebuild an existing deployment, choose which machines to rebuild, and do it in bulk. This enhancement saves time and effort for users. 

Provide the ability to scope Secrets by Org and Projects. 

Cloud admins can now assign secrets at an organization level, or scope them to multiple projects. This enhancement adds more flexibility for customers to create secrets not only at the project level but also at the Organizational level.
