Error in configuration

Hi!

I have VI3 in place and 2 ESX 3.01 Host's coupled to a EMC CX3-20. I have about 25 VM's inhouse.

Today when i started my VI Client up i saw errors on my two hosts

Resource configuration specification synchronization failed on host 'hostserver.domain.com' in domain

Reason: Error during the configuration of the host: Already exists

what to do???

Best regards Nicklas in Vallentuna / Stockholm / sweden

We've seen this before, and it tends to just go away by itself. Doesn't seem to affect anything.

You could also try a restart of the management agents on your hosts - service mgmt-vmware restart - to see if that helps.

Rgds,

Doug.

Hi Everyone!

Now i have a solution on this problem.

i've tested this commands

service mgmt-vmware restart

service vmware-vpxa restart

but nothing helped, so i removed the failing host from the cluster and put it right back again and disabled and enabled the HA and DRS and now it works just fine.
