Hey all.

I have this funny little problem, on my pc it gives me this error

The VMRC console has disconnected.. attempting to reconnect

when I try to connect to a vm on my backup site. But on my main site I have no problem.

if I remote to any other pc and log on the my backup vcenter there is no problem.

I have tryed a lot of the stuff I found here

The VMRC console has disconnected.. attempting to reconnect

none did work sadly....

anyone have a idea for what I can do here ?

To get around the problem there are many ways;

1

* close all VI-client instances.

* kill all vmware-vmrc related processes from TaskManager.

* restart the Vi client.

2. Connect from VMware workstation

3. Reboot your machine.

4. Uninstall old and install new version of vSphere client.
