    Helpful article, Viktor.

    One thing I’ve noticed in vRA 7.2 event subscriptions, you only seem to be able to use custom property expressions in the top 2 levels of nesting. Below that, you don’t get the text box with the green checkmark to enter the name of the custom property.

    i.e. This works:

    Single Condition
    Data>Machine>Properties>viktorious.os equals windows

    And this works:

    All of the Following
    Single Condition
    Data>Machine>Properties>viktorious.os equals windows
    etc.

    But unable to get this to work, there is nowhere to enter the property name.

    All of the Following
    Any of the Following
    Single Condition
    Data>Machine>Properties>viktorious.os equals windows
    etc.

    Is there a trick? Is this a known limitation?

    I have a situation where would be useful to be able to do this.

    Thanks
    Matt

      Hi Matt, thanks for your comment. And to be honest, I ran into exactly the same issue at a customer vRA implementation. I’ve been looking for a solution or workaround, but haven’t found anything. I will ask around in my network, maybe someone can help. Will let you know when I find a solution for this!

        Ok, not just me then. Too bad.

        Thanks for the quick reply. Will follow up if I come up with something at my end.

        Cheers.

    Is there a way to delay disposing of a failed build.
    We have a EB that runs the dispose of the server however there are times when we would like to not dispose of the server for 24 hours.

    Hi viktorious,
    How can we define the condition that the event broker should run if the user-defined custom property value is present (not empty) ?
