Fixing “VCF Upgrade Bundle Not Visible” Error in Bundle Management (VCF 5.2.1 → 5.2.2)

When upgrading VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) from 5.2.1 to 5.2.2, you may encounter an error in Bundle Management where the upgrade bundle does not appear. The UI displays the following error:

Error "Retrieving available bundles failed" is observed with below message in Bundle Management:

Encountered fetching http://127.0.0.1/lcm/inventory/upgrades.api - Target VCF version 5.2.1.0 is lower than source VCF version 5.2.2.0

🔍 Root Cause

• The SDDC Manager detects a mismatch between the target version and the current version.

• A planned patching task or stale upgrade plan may exist for an older version (e.g., 5.2.0 or 5.2.1) while the environment is already running a newer version (5.2.2).

• This breaks bundle availability checks in Bundle Management

In my case it was a stale upgrade plan existing , from the GUI i didnt see an option to cancel it , so run the command to check the upgrade plan patch status and it was already running 5.2 patch .

🛠 Resolution Steps
