Recently, I wanted to demonstrate Aria Automation’s multi-cloud capabilities. Therefore I wanted to use the official tutorial available on the VMware documentation web site as a basis (https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Automation/8.11/Using-and-Managing-Cloud-Assembly/GUID-6EC5AFE5-3C18-4F68-A7E3-82ADD4490002.html). In this tutorial we deploy the same cloud template to more than one cloud provider, in this case AWS and Microsoft Azure.
Setting up the infrastructure on AWS and Azure (labeled “part 1” in the official tutorial) works as described there (except that you have to select other image mappings), also the creation of the Aria Automation example project (labeled “part 2” in the official tutorial) works as described, but I had problems with the Automation Assembler templates to deploy the basic cloud template and the expanded cloud template (labeled “part 3” in the official tutorial).
Thus I’ve played around a bit and came up with two working cloud templates.
