Hi,
We are facing a problem with our vcenter after a restart yesterday. We are running vmware vcenter appliance 5.5 (Linux SUSE). No update was made. The appliance has been running for over a year. however, now it shows error:
Could not connect to one or more vCenter Server systems:
in the web client. Please see attached screen shot. It does not shows any hosts, clusters, datastores, ...etc anymore. They all shows "0".
All services seem to be running as shown in the appliance configuration page (see attached screen shot) and when we check them in ssh session with command:
service --status-all
Looking at tail/var/log/vmware/vpx/vpxd.log it shows the following:
