We had an issue today where the vRealize Automation (vRA) 7 Event Broker Service (EBS) would time out. The timeouts would happen intermittently, during different stages of the provisioning lifecycle. We noticed that something was not right when extensibility workflow calls to vRealize Orchestrator (vRO) would return after the vRO workflows completed, but the provisioning lifecycle state for the virtual machine would fail to change or progress and eventually time out with an EBS timeout message.
