Hi Guys,
I URGENTLY need to search for a reboot reason for a vcenter VCSA 6.7 node.
I cannot see anything in "tasks" in the UI, and in vpxd.log only see "Initiating VMware VirtualCenter shutdown"
Which log file do I need to check on the vcenter appliance to find the reason entered for the node reboot?!
Many thanks in advance, this is basic, but killing me.
Hello all,
vCenter // vSphere 6.7.0.41000
Can you change the password requirements displayed for the vCenter Server Appliance Management interface?
I understand you can specify SSO Password Policy settings in the vSphere client; However the Appliance Management Interface (:5480) appears to have its own password policy settings unaffected by the vSphere Client vCenter SSO settings. You can view these settings by logging in to the Appliance Management portal as root where you'll see an Administration tab on the left.
For example, from shell I can create a new localos account with a 6 character password and log in to Appliance Management with that account, even though my SSO Password Policy settings specify 8 characters.
Thank you for any help offered.
G'Day all,
I'm in the process of doing the upgrade now from VCSA 6.5 to 6.7, after the Stage 2 pre-upgrade checks have run it shows an issue with "External Extensions" such as Dell OpenManage Integration (the server is a Dell R740 with the Dell ESXi6.5U3 A01 release installed fresh) and vRealize Orchestration Manager which appears to hav ebeen installed but never used and is currently off.
My question is, can I ignore this issue and let the upgrade run or do I have to remove some components to guarantee success?
Thanks
Sid
Hi all,
i am facing a strange issue with 4 new Dell R740 Hosts currently running ESXi 6.7.0 Update 3 (Build 15018017). All sensors are no longer available as soon as a Server is added to VCenter 6.7.0 Build 13007421.
Failed - The Operation is not supported on the object.
I have added two Servers and i cannot retrieve Health Information since. The remaining two are not connected to VCenter yet and the sensor Information can be retrieved without any issue.
Wbem has been checked and watchdog restarted.
VCenter will be updated soon so it might fix the issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mat
I am trying to configure ldaps to my DCs in vcenter 6.7
Am I only able to specify one controller since it can take only one cert in the settings?
Hi Everyone,
I'm currently setting up a new environment using ESXi 6.7 with an vCenter appliance deployed on the host. Setting up the hsot and the vCenter worked pretty well, and so far everything seems to be working alright, but I noticed some strange behaviour regarding the services of the vCenter:
VMware Postgres Archiver:
This service seems to change to status "stopped" every once in a while. I searched the KB and found a tip to change the wal_sender_timeout parameter to 600s, so the service doesn't run into any timeouts, but sadly this didn't help. I tried setting wal_sender_timeout to 0 (disabling the timeout), bu the issue still persists.
My logfiles present the same Messages as described in this KB-article:
/var/log/vmware/vpostgres/pg_archiver.log-[n].stderr:
ERROR pg_archiver could not receive data from WAL stream: server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
/var/log/vmware/vpostgres/postgresql-[nn].log:
[unknown] archiver LOG: terminating walsender process due to replication timeout
VMware PSC Health & VMware vCenter Server:
Both of these services currently show up as "degraded":
Meanwhile the summary page reports everything as "good":
The appliance has been assigned 16GB of RAM and 2vCPUs. Current Version:
Any ideas how to fix these services, or where to check for further information about the status of the PCS Service and the vCenter Server?
With regards,
Fabian
I migrated to external PSC to 6.7u3 before attempting to do the same for vCenter itself. I keep getting an error at Starting VMware Authentication Framework. The Error that comes up is:
Failed to force refresh TRUSTED_ROOTS Error 183
DNS is working. I can ping the host name of the vcenter server, and its alias, they both come back as responsive.
Here are the error logs from the migration assistant:

Hello,
After searching the web endlessly I can't seem to find a solution to this problem. Hopefully someone here might be able to help or tell me my ambitions aren't worth pursuing.
Basically the 5.5 vCenter Appliance we were using to manage our server infrastructure is dead in the water and we've just decided to re-deploy a new one. However we'll require the license key from the old appliance. With the web client down on the old appliance, is there a way to retrieve the license from it so that we may use the license again?
I have found the license files in the /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/licenses/site/ directory. But it appears that all the keys are hashed, and there are many files. Is there a command to return the currently assigned licenses on the appliance without hash?
My installation of Vcenter 6.7 gets stuck at 60%. Below is the error I get:
Hi all,
I have upgraded the vCenter 6.7 U2 to U3a, but after that the plugin for vRops, vSAN in vCenter had failed and result in below error:
Error downloading plug-in. Make sure that the URL is reachable and the registered thumbprint is correct.java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 503for URL: https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443/vsanHealth/plugins/vropsPlugin.zip sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream0(HttpURLConnection.java:1894)
Is there any way to resolve it?
Hi,
I am trying to configure automated backup of vCenter 6.5 server using API call and script. Everything looks ok from Script perspective however its always failing with error "AuthenticationError: One or more certificates cannot be verified ".
I feel like it has something to do with external PSC controllers certificates as currently it has only 2 PSCs. However, Looking at the “STS signing” tab under Administration-> Configuration of vCenter, I see some certificate chain with servers that are no longer available in environment. Looks like PSCs were not removed properly in past as we only have 2 PSCs, but STS signing shows 4 PSCs.
Can someone please suggest some fix for this.

How can I fix this? The config hasn't changed and the only thing that's ocurred is the restart.
Thanks in advance.
I am unable to open the web console to a vm and getting this
HTTP Status 500 – Internal Server Error
Type Exception Report
Message An exception occurred processing JSP page [/webconsole.html] at line [9]
Description The server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request.

any idea?
Hello,
Since a few days ago, suddenly OVF templates through programs started to no longer deploy.
Deploying through the vCenter interface works, but from the vRLCM installer, it no longer works.
I end up with these errors: "2019-11-30T17:21:49.105Z - error: Could not get response in 30000 ms, from host: vcenter.internal.masterwayz.nl"
"ovf deployment failed after 1800000 ms passed in which no response from the server was received"
A NSX-T Edge deployment also fails with an error saying that it cannot write the request to the server with the vmdk file. (don't remember it exactly)
This suddenly happened, I feel like something is very broken here and I have no clue what I can do to fix it.
My old vCenter crashed and I'm trying to add custom certificates on the new one however when I complete the CSR generation on the web UI there are just two options, copy and download.
Copy does what it says, copies the CSR to the clipboard and download downloads it, just the CSR, no private key. The CSR, naturally, is enough to get the signed certificate but at import time I have no private key to match and thus it won't accept the certificate.
How can I get a hold of the private key? Why after so many iterations can't VMware get it right--I mean, vCenter is really expensive, you sort of expect it to be flawless. What's the point of the web UI if you still have to hunt down files in the CLI. I tried using this wildcard certificate I'm using in several places but it won't accept it, I assume it's because it doesn't explicitly has the hostname.
I looked it up (the private key) on /usr/lib/vmware-vmca/bin already expecting it not to be there, and surely it wasn't. I went to /tmp and looked up anything with today's timestamp (/tmp/jna-root) but it was empty. The rest on /tmp are .part files.
Anyway, I appreciate your help on this -- and thanks !
I searched lots of places vcenter OVF or OVA file. But unfortunately i can't find any where this file. Kindly Advise.
I've got a small system with only two hosts but multiple VMs. I created a vCenter Server Appliance on Workstation Pro 15.5 and it functions great. But for some reason, on boot up, it doesn't go to the standard console. Instead it dumps me at a login prompt on the CLI (presumably in Linux).
Is there any thing I can do to get it to always go to the console?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions...
Hi Folks,
we have a general Active Directory Domain Migration at hand, which means that all AD objects get moved from xy.domain.local to domain.local.
So we need to migrate the VSCA to its root domain.
Question 1: We have a Computer Object (Edit: for the VCSA Server) in AD in xy.domain.local. Is there a way to migrate this, or do we have to unconfigure the identity sources/AD-Membership and reconfigure it under the new domain.
Question 2: Is there a way to preserve the Permissions assigned to AD groups. They are not so many, but it would be nice not to have to build them per pedes again.
Question 3: Are there any KB Articles i missed, as google-fu is full on master level here if you try 'vcenter' and 'migration' as keywords.
vCenter Version: 6.5.0.20000
Edit: Domain and Forrest are on a 2008R2 Level
Thanks in Advance
