After Update to 5.5 U1 Update Manager Issue

[JimKnopf99]

Hi,

it is a pain to update vCenter with Heartbeat. Everytime something goes wrong.

This time, the VUM is not registered with the vcenter fqdn. It is using the local hostname instead.

OK, i thought i could Change it with using the VMware vSphere Update Manager Utility.

Run the exe and reregister the update Manager. But the issue remains.

Because i am using own certificate, i get a warning every time i open the update Manager. Is there any Chance to Change to the fqdn?

VMware KB: Changing the vCenter Update Manager IP address and preserving the Update Manager setup

Might be worth a shot, no clue how it would behave in a heartbeat setup though, so better have a back up at hand

Basically you will not look for the IP but rather the host name in that file.

Hi,

thanks, I have changed the certificate so that the hostnames, vcenter name and ip addresses are also included.

Today, I check the function of the update manager.
