Solved Vmware - error connecting to authd on host Posted on 2009-11-19 VMware Virtualization 1 Verified Solution 3 Comments 2,019 Views Last Modified: 2012-05-08 We have Virtual Center 2.5 installed on a server - VManager. Nown when the VIC is run on that machine and we try to connect to the console of any of our VM's (spanned across 2 hosts) we get an error " Error connectin to authd on host ESX01/ESX02". When I connect to Virtual Center from the VIC installed on another machine I'm able to connect OK. What is the simplest fix (cause?) for this? 0 Question by:agradmin Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Google Best Solution byagradmin Problem solved - once the VIC was upgraded on this machine the situation resolved itself.

It needs to be on the same subnet or routed to your workstation. You can configure a seperate SC for management. 0 LVL 6 Overall: Level 6 VMware 2 Virtualization 2 Message Expert Comment by:eabeukes2009-11-26 Check DNS and HOSTS file entries contain pointers for ESX01/02 on the VManager server. 0 Message Accepted Solution by:agradmin2009-12-14 Problem solved - once the VIC was upgraded on this machine the situation resolved itself.

I am getting the error connecting to authd on host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in the VI client window. Until recently I have been able to connect through the VI Client andweb ui. Nothing on the ESX server has been changed or updated. I have tried different laptops to connect through the client andweb https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/231216b1-0fa8-41ff-b24f-aba1ac13f45a/vmware-infrastructure-client-error-on-windows-xp-professional-error-connecting-to-authd-on-host?forum=itproxpsp interface. I get mixed results. Some of the laptops were able toconnect through the client and web ui and others get the same authderror. This leads me to believe that something on the laptop(s)(Microsoft) arecausing my issue. All of the laptops are using Windows XP SP2, IE 8,.net 3.5 sp1. I have tried to find dll's that are different in version#, but nothing has surfaced. Has anyone had problems with certain Microsoft fixpacks or other updates or versions of Microsoft software that caused their vmware client to stop functioning correctly. Thanks for any help!!

on 20 October 2011 by Michele Some days ago I was preparing a new CentOS virtual machine from a template in my ESX 3.5 infrastructure, but when i was selecting the Datacenter for the deployment, it appeared the following message: "Unable to migrate from esx1 to esx2: Virtual Machine has 2 virtual CPUs, but the host software only supports 1. The number of virtual CPU's may be limited by the guest OS selected for the virtual machines or by the licensing for the host" My ESX 3.5 Standard licenses provide virtual machines configured to 4 vCPU. Fortunately the VMware KB saved me with this article: simply unconfigure the licenses of all the hosts from the Configuration tab, setting "Unlicensed" and then again "ESX Server Standard".

First of all, VCP is the first step in the path of professional certifications from VMware, dedicated to the vSphere platform. To learn more, click here . As you know, there are tons of useful resources to prepare the exam: official courses (required to access the exam!!!), manuals, online simulations, etc … For myself, I can tell you that: - The exam consists of 85 questions, single or multiple choiche, to be completed in 120 minutes (+15 minutes to survey questions), questions are very "mnemonic" ("After how many seconds the host is isolated?" "How many VMs can run on a host?") so you have to STUDY!!! - The official course does not cover a
