Hi
I've successfully deploy external PSC. When I continue to deploy the vcenter appliance I got the error firstboot script execution error. The ssl certificate does not match when connecting to the vcenter single sign-on.
I refer to this blog for troubleshooting https://techbrainblog.com/2015/10/03/vcsa-6-0-installation-issues-firstboot-script-execution-error/ but when deploying the vcenter the ip of the external PSC i enter was correct. Also i checked the DNS and both PSC and Vcenter name able to resolve correctly.
If I were to try and install the vcenter again, could i just power down the failed Vcenter and delete it?
Hi,
This is a new installation, or are you trying to re-point to a external PSC within your site?
If to re-point, check this: How to repoint vCenter Server 6.0 between External PSC within a site (2113917) | VMware KB
Also dont forget that the old installation could have the PNID(primary network identifier) with the FQDN or the IP address. Is not the same and they work different.
If a new installation, try to follow this:

I've re-try. It turns out that the reverse dns for the PSC and Vcenter not added. Because the failed vcenter installation i entered the ip of the PSC instead of the FQDN.
After I removed the failed Vcenter from the PSC record and added the reverse dns record for psc and vcenter, the installation was successful.
