Hi,

According to the contents of  this message, if you login in as an Active Directory user, this message doesn't appear.

I already connected to to the domain already.

then i log in as VCENTER\Administrator

The problem still occurs...

In my environment, I using 3 server and 1 laptop

1 server DL380 G4 install Windows Server 2008 R2 as Active Directory Domain Controller.

1 server DL380 G5 install ESXi

1 Server DL380 G6 install ESXi

1 Laptop install Windows server 2008 Enterprise ( Plan to install VMware vCenter in it).......

Hi,

Take a closer look!

You must login not as a local computer user but as an Active Directory user.

Is the vmware.local? So what do i need to change? Eg. Like zzz.com?

I use it testing in local only... That why I set it up with the name .local

Is it wrong set up?

I had the same issue when installing vCenter, resolved it by creating a user profile on AD and then logging into the Windows Server as that user

Hope this helps!

[GheeSeong]

Hmm.. It would be nice to show step-by step...

(Are u created another new user in active directory there, and assign the roles as Administrator?)

[Pumbaa]

Yup thats it.

I would love to show a step by step but my Trail License of 60 days just expired mate so it may take some time for me to setup something at a short notice.

Its not so complicated, just create an user in AD. Assign Administrative Privilages and then login to the Win Server that you are installing SSO on using that profile and continue the installation.

Thats about it really

[GheeSeong]

OK. Thank. I will test it out...

Hi,

I'll say it again.

If you don't want to allow this message to appear, You must login not as a local computer user but as an Active Directory user.

If Domain name is vmware.local, you could login in as an Active Directory user, such as "vmware.local\Administrator".

Good luck!!

Regards.
