Morning folks, Recently come across a minor (but VERY annoying) issue in my vsphere 5 setup - the hardware status tab, when I am logged into vcenter, does not show any information, just comes up with an error "The query service is not available" or words to that effect. However when I log in to each server separately, unable to retrieve the hardware status shows up just fine, I can see each sensor status. I have researched this quite thoroughly, and most issues seem to be either permissions related (not applicable as the only user I log into vcenter with is the local admin account), or name-resolution related, but I have updated any names in vcenter to IP address only, added an entry in HOSTS file on the vcenter server itself, and a few other suggestions - none of which have worked. I am pretty sure it did work previously, but can't remember 100% if it was. So, any suggestions? The one suggested fix I couldn't do, was relating to ADAM ADSI edit, apparently there may be something in there relating to name rather than IP or something. But, tried to install ADAM, didnt really know what I was doing, so couldn't start the ADSI edit. Help, its really annoying!!

upgrading to VMware vCenter 4.1, the vCenter Service Status shows red and displays the error message: Unable to retrieve health data from https:///converter/health.xml VMware has provided a workaround to this issue in KB 1025010. The workaround involves installing the ldp.exe application binary from Microsoft, however, since I'm running vCenter Server on Windows Server 2008 R2, the binary is already in place by default and no download and installation was required. I've applied the workaround and after a service restart and a brief wait, the Service Status health went completely green, which is desired. It's worth nothing for posterity that step 3a is missing a small piece which I have provided in red below: Double-click DC=virtualcenter,DC=vmware,DC=int, then double-click -OU=Health,DC=virtualcenter,DC=vmware,DC=int -OU=ComponentSpecs,OU=Health,DC=virtualcenter,DC=vmware,DC=int -CN=.vpxd,CN=,OU=ComponentSpecs,OU=Health,DC=virtualcenter,DC=vmware -CN=com.vmware.converter,CN=,OU=ComponentSpecs,OU=Health,DC=virtualcenter,DC Related PostsNovember 12, 2013 Single Sign-On Warning 25000August 27, 2012 VMworld 2012 Announcements - Part IMay 6, 2013 vSphere 5.1 Update 1 Update SequenceMarch 4, 2013 Book Review: VMware vSphere 5 Building a Virtual DatacenterSeptember 27, 2011 Enabling vCenter Server 5.0 Database Monitoring Previous Entry: vCalendar 2.0 Released; 1.0 Free Electronic Download Next Entry: vCenter Server JVM Memory Posted in Virtualization Tags: vCenter Server VMware vSphere You can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 Feed.
