Where is the "handshakeTimeoutMs" defenition for SSL handshake/timeouts in ESXI 6.X?

[bm07]

I was getting this "alarm.HostConnectionStateAlarm changed status from Green to Red " and I remember in ESXi 5.X you would edit that value in /etc/vmware/rhttpproxy/config.xml

however in all the ESXi 6.0 hosts I looked at, none of them have a "handshakeTimeoutMs" definition like they did before.

(Ref: KB 1020210)

Does anyone know where that's defined now in 6.X ?

TIA!

Hi bm07,

I am looking for the same setting. Did you find a way to configure it?

[Ivaylo_Kiryazov]

The Reverse Proxy config settings file is located :

Linux:

'/etc/vmware-rhttpproxy/config.xml'

Windows:

'VMWARE_CFG_DIR\vmware-rhttpproxy\config.xml’

Should be located in vmacore/ssl

<vmacore>

//...

      <ssl>

           //...

           <!-- SSL handshake timeout in milliseconds. Default 20 seconds -->
here---->  <handshakeTimeoutMs>20000</handshakeTimeoutMs>

           //...

      </ssl>

//...

</vmacore>

Hope that is useful to you. If you need any more clarification, please write back.

If the option is commented or deleted it will use a hardcoded default value of 20 000 ms.

In case you explicitly list it in the config file the option in the config file will be honored.
