Splunk VMware App missing roles in a Search Head cluster

I just deployed the latest version of the VMware app into our 6.5.2 Sh cluster. Everything looks fine, but I do not see either the user or admin roles for the vmware app when I go to update roles per the instructions. I do see the configs in the TA for the roles called Splunk_TA_vmware which I deployed into the cluster using the cluster deployer. With no roles I am limited how I can use the app in the SH cluster till this gets resolved.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi, Roles are defined in Splunk_TA_VMWare and you can refer this link https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/VMW/3.3.2/Installation/DownloadandinstalltheSplunkAppforVMware and ensure that you have deployed all required component on specific instances. And also make sure that you have deployed the same version of apps and addons.
