Got a bit of a strange one thats popped up today with 3 of our esx servers, basically they don't appear to be listing the HA nodes correctly on each host..

What i've done to resolve:


restarted services (vpxa, hostd, ssh, authd)


restarted AAM ( ./etc/init.d/LGTOAAM51_vmware stop / start)


checked dns resolution (shortname & fqdn) between all hosts & VC.

See the following:

Check FT_HOSTS file and see if the entries on all hosts are correct. If the entries are not correct, you can delete the file, and click reconfigure for HA.
