When updating a Content Pack in vRealize Log Insight that includes user modifications, it's essential to preserve these custom changes to prevent data loss. The recommended approach is to export your modifications as a Content Pack before performing the update. After the update is completed, you can import these changes back into your user profile. This ensures that your custom configurations are retained post- update.
Procedure:
* Export User Modifications:
* Navigate to the vRealize Log Insight web user interface.
* Go to the Content Packs section.
* Select the custom content or modifications you've made.
* Click on Export Content to save your modifications as a Content Pack.
* Update the Content Pack:
* In the Content Packs section, check for available updates.
* If updates are available, proceed to update the desired Content Pack.
* Import User Modifications:
* After the update is complete, return to the Content Packs section.
* Click on Import Content.
* Select the previously exported Content Pack containing your modifications.
* Import it back into your user profile to restore your custom settings.
This process ensures that any user-specific customizations are preserved during Content Pack updates. For more detailed information, refer to VMware's official documentation on updating installed Content Packs
