1. Re: HA agent on host could not reach isolation addrss
DavoudTeimouri Feb 14, 2014 9:01 AM (in response to dirkidgs)Check you VMKernel portgroup configuration (Management traffic) and also ESXi firewall configuration.
The address is not reachable via network between the hosts.
Try to ping other hosts from one host and repeat it on all hosts.

2. Re: HA agent on host could not reach isolation addrss
a.p. Feb 14, 2014 1:54 PM (in response to dirkidgs)By default, the Management Network's default gateway address is used as the isolation address. Please check whether this is configured properly and has not accidentally been modified with e.g. configuring vMotion.

3. Re: HA agent on host could not reach isolation addrss
tomtom901 Feb 15, 2014 2:56 AM (in response to a.p.)Seeing as the other hosts (assuming they are in the same subnet) can ping the isolation address (which is the default gateway for the management VMkernel as Andre points out), we can assume that the default gateway is an ICMP pingable device. Your best bet would be to check the specific host and see if you can ping the default gateway here. You can see what the default gateway is by running the command: esxcli network ip route ipv4 list, which would give you an output like this:
~ # esxcli network ip route ipv4 list
Network Netmask Gateway Interface Source

The first line is your default gateway. That should be reachable for the hosts in a HA enabled cluster, as they ping this address to check if they have been isolated from the network.

nflsubs Feb 22, 2019 8:28 PM (in response to dirkidgs)Check your default gateway for the host.
Correct the gateway if you changed recently.
