Hi, having a lot of problems trying to deploy vrealize operations manager. 1st I couldn't deploy the ova to the vcenter version 7.01U1 - error Transfer failed: IO error during transfer: java.io.EOFException: Unexpected EOF read on the socket. - googled that and there is a thread about it, nothing helped there. So finally deployed it to a host, works no problem however, I can't get it to connect to a vDswitch during deploy and it powers on on the standard vswitch which has no uplinks for now... so then I power down, go to the venter and move it onto the correct portgroup on the vDswitch and reboot. Comes up to bluescreen that says logon using the ip address I gave it. No dice, can't ping the address or login to the webui. Soooo, went to the console, login - googled what the root login was, all I could find was that it was root and no password, wouldn't let me login with no password, locked me out after 4 attempts. Redeployed again. Got into grup and bash and reset password. So, now I an login as root, I can see that the ip is set and I can ping everywhere from the appliance. This is vsphere 7.01u1 on all the hosts and vcenter, vrealize operations manager 8.1.1.16522874. This is all the most current stuff downloaded from my VMUG Advantage program... hate to be negative, but seems like a lot of hoops to jump thru to get this working for the average joe/josephine.
