We recently deployed vRA 7 using the minimal install model to begin planning for a production upgrade from vRA 6 to vRA 7. Since we are using the minimal install model we are leveraging the vRO 7 instance that’s bundled with the vRA appliance.
As we began testing our existing WF’s in vRA 7 we noticed that the data we were writing to System.log() was not visible in our vRO client. I reviewed /var/log/vmware/vco/app-server/server.log to confirm that the data I was logging with Server.log() was indeed being written as INFO. While reviewing server.log I noticed the following client specific error that repeats in the log every 15-20 seconds as long as my vRO Java client is connected and I believe this is why I’m unable to view messages in the Logs tab of the vRO client:

its connection, or the network between the server and client has failed. You also might have configured connection-ttl and client-failure-check-period incorrectly. Please check user manual for more information. The connection will now be
closed. [code=3]

Has anyone else experienced similar errors or logging behavior in vRO 7?
