Hi All,
For the life of me I cannot work out how the hell this happened, but I now have multiple services that cannot start reporting an incorrect username and/or password.
I can't seem to find anywhere where these details would be defined so they can be verified. This is the latest build of vCenter Server 6.5 on a fully patched Windows Server 2012 R2 server.
Service Status check shows the following:
C:\Program Files\VMware\vCenter Server\bin>service-control --status --all
Running:
VMWareAfdService VMWareCertificateService VMWareDirectoryService VMwareComponentManager VMwareDNSService VMwareIdentityMgmtService VMwareSTS VServiceManager content-library rhttpproxy vimPBSM vmon vmonapi vmsyslogcollector vmware-cis-config vmware-license vmware-perfcharts vmware-psc-client vmwareServiceControlAgent vpxd vpxd-svcs vsan-health
Stopped:
EsxAgentManager VMWareCAMService mbcs vapiEndpoint vmware-autodeploy-waiter vmware-imagebuilder vmware-network-coredump vsphere-ui vspherewebclientsvc
When trying to run "service-control --start vsphere-client" from an elevated command prompt, the vMon log shows the following:
2017-01-31T23:02:09.998+11:00| vthread-5| I125: Received request to get service state for vmon

If anyone can assist in rectifying this stuff up, that'll be greatly appreciated
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Ray
