vRealize OPs 6: Add storage device solutions

Hi

I'm having trouble adding any storage device in the "Management Pack for Storage Details". I'm trying to follow the instructions from here:

Install and Configure a Storage Devices Solution

But I seem to be missing something.

I have four vCenter Servers connected to vRealize OPs. When I go into the Solutions settings, I see three solutions: "LogInsight", "VMware vSphere" and "Management Pack for Storage Devices". When I try to configure the MPSD I click on the MPSD, then "Configure" and I'm then presented with a screen that asks me for adapter settings. I enter the display name, enter the FQDN of one of my vCenter Servers, select a credential set that works for the "VMware vSphere" adapter, click "Test Connection", receive a certificate warning and then get:

"Unable to establish a valid connection to the target system. Failed to connect to vCenter "

The vCenter Server I'm connecting to is version 5.1. When using the web client to connect to the vCenter Server and go to solutions, I do see that this vCenter Server knows about 8 storage connections, all on VASA 1.0.

I have no clue on where to look for to solve this.

Running vCenter Server 5.1 build 1123961 (vCenter Server 5.1 Update 1a).  Updating is no easy job for us because of all the dependencies and minimal vCenter downtime I'm allowed to have 😞
