Opting out of the default catalog

Use Lumen® Private Cloud on VMware Cloud Foundation™ to opt out of automatic catalog synchronization for your clouds in Lumen® Edge Cloud Services. Lumen Private Cloud on VMware Cloud Foundation™ is built with a default catalog which uses a subscription model. Catalogs contain vApps and vApp templates, included by default or added by you. All of the upstream publisher content is automatically downloaded to the default catalog. The default catalog file name is ([siteID] [data center] cl01 Lumen). For example, s123456stl01cl01 Lumen.
 

Because your default catalog is a subscriber to the master catalog service, the contents change as new vApp templates are added and older vApp templates are retired. With this subscription model, you receive all of the contents of the upstream catalog. If you delete any of the vApp templates in your default catalog, they will be added again the next time your catalog synchronizes. To opt out, complete one of the following options:

  • Unsubscribe from automatic synchronization. The current contents of the subscribed catalog remain, but the catalog will not be updated.
Unsubscribing from automatic synchronization
  • Delete the default catalog. The catalog and all its contents will be deleted. To retain any vApp tempates, move the templates to another catalog before you delete the default catalog.
