Hi,

Can you attach the log file VMware vSphere 5.1

This issue is only on your computer , or it is the same when you are conencting directly on the vcenter and start the vsphere client?

Regards,

Julien.

. i had to restart server. any idea?

It means that the hostd agent agent on your server was not granted enough resources to update its status. This could be the server is under stress and no free cpu cycles are available.

while start vSphere Client, when i access to vSphere window

Check if any other process is hogging the memory by esxtop.

And of course, are you using the vsphere client matching the ESXi server version Smiley Happy

Alrighty then, now we are able to fixate on that the VC is able to connect properly, but the error happens when any action pertaining to the 248.6 server is triggered.

1. So let us take care of the esxi server side. Can you let us know if the server is under any AD configuration or is running any workloads?

2. From the vpxa.log of the server, check the activity by tail -f /var/log/vpxa.log when you click applications resource pool.

3.  Instead of from VC, try opening the server 248.6 from a vsphere client only and check, if you are able to manage or view any properties like vms, licenses, network.

Disable your firewall on your vcenter if it is enable.

Can you attach the log please because it is a general error message. Maybe you have something else.

Do you have a firewall between your sphere client and  your ESXi?
