If you like me deployed SSC (SaltStack Config) outside of LCM and are now trying to import it under LCM management you probably ran in to the following error:
Error Code: LCMVSSC10018
vRealize Automation SaltStack Config import failed as unable to validate license. Check whether proper license is applied to vRealize Automation SaltStack Config appliance.
Exception while importing vRealize Automation SaltStack Config as unable to validate the license key. Check vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager logs for more information
Ive tried to research the issue but i had no luck. The following steps worked for my environment.
Find the license key for SaltStack under the my vmware portal. It would be labeled vRealize Automation SaltStack Config entitlement ex:
Once you have the key create a file under /etc/raas/something_license
In this file add the key from the my vmware portal
Change the owner of the file to the raas user by running
chown raas:raas /etc/raas/yourfilename_license
systemctl restart raas
Additionally also make sure the license key is available in the lifecycle manager locker. If you need help with the locker you can find instructions on how adding the new key here
You should now be able to import the SSC install into LCM
