Dear guys,
i'm installing the 3rd Vcenter in our environment.
We have a central and a 2nd Vcenter in linked mode.
I'm intalling the 3rd Vcenter in linked mode but i got the error :
Operation "Join instance VMwareVCMSDS" failed: : Action: Join Instance
Action: Join Instance
Action: Create replica instance
Action: Create Instance
Problem: Creation of instance VMwareVCMSDS failed: Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services could not replicate the directory partition CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,CN={C8268EB8-701A-4D44-BAD9-9C5634DAD8FD} from the remote Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services instance wdeluh2678362.rz-c007-j650.basf-ag.de:389.
Error code: 0x80072108
The source server is currently rejecting replication requests.
And i have no way out.
Same DNS same AD domain for all servers...
How can i set to Linked mode the 3rd Vcenter ?
many thx in advance
Daniele

Consider awarding points for "helpful" and/or "correct" answers.
You can try the below steps:
From a command prompt with administrator-level privileges, change directories to the vCenter Server installation directory.
Delete the<code># VMwareVCMSDS</code># directory.
Recover the local LDAP instance by typing<code># jointool.bat recover</code># .
NOTE: Perform a backup of all instances VCDB before you go for this...

I tried this solution but it did not work...
One question the 3rd Vcennter (the one which is not working) was the the 2nd Vcenter cloned to template (but then i unindstalled Vcenter and all SW leaving the machine clean) and i deployed this using sysprep and changing the SID.
The error is :
Operation "Join instance VMwareVCMSDS" failed:
Action: Join Instance

I'm getting mad!
Hi!
I´ve got the same problem!!
Have U find any solution for this??
Our vCenter Servers are all vCenter 4.1 running on Windows Server 2008R2 x64
Thanks, Hannes!
Hi, there are you running the Linked mode join tool as Administrator?
Are you logging on to the system as the Service account that is running vCenter?
Are you running the Windows Firewall on the new server? you will need to either disable the firewall or allow the LDAP ports through.
Hi guys,
i will close this topic as it seems involving MS and directory services.
I have opened a call to MS.
