I can't change Advanced vCenter Server Settings with the Administrator account, only view grey settings.
if need more details about it, plz leave a common. tkx
Hi @bbc250 ,
What version of vCenter are you using by the way?
Also, you cannot directly edit the advanced settings. You would have to open up a window with "Edit Settings" to actually be able to edit the settings. As far as I can see it looks like you don't have that in your vSphere Client. This could be because a browser issue, so please try another browser, or because of the version you are using. Also please try and use the Flash Client.
"Also please try and use the Flash Client."
99% of people can't do this anymore since flash is EOL, and its abit of work to even get it back again .
Try clearing your cache and try again, you should see an edit button in the upper right
@zenmatrix I know, but there should be an Edit Settings button. So it all depends on what vCenter Version he is using to be honest.
tks for replying.
6.7, both ESXi and VCSA
By the way, how to open up a windows with "Edit Settings" mode? I can't find it upper right .😅
And I can't browse the flash version, even thought I had installed flash add-on with IE. After log-in, the page is a blank page.
Yeap, you are right.
Before post this question, I tried to use flash version and out-of-date vcenter client(MS version). I can't even log in.
Can you try other browsers or incognito mode for instance?
@sjesse I also had tried. It can't work 🤔
I try to recall which setting, I modified before, could cause this unusual problem: password strength? 5480 background? ......
In addition, My VCSA runs on ESXi. Could the corruption of vmdk file cause this problem? But most functions of web client are work well.
What version are you one and are the available updates? Seems in the instance here it was fixed by an update
Nothing you did can cause this specific issue as far as I am aware. Like I and others have said, what version are you on (specific) and can you update?
Hi @bbc250 ,
No those are the Flash versions, I actually meant the vCenter Server version + build number. You can find this under:
Home -> Hosts and Clusters -> Root vCenter -> Summary -> Version Information. Or from the VAMI home page.
I'm not sure whether the specific version has this problem or bugs.
Next, I will try to install a new VCSA and migrate all configurations. Those are all I can't try.
Does everyone have a better solution?@bryanvaneeden @sjesse @zenmatrix
Just use the 5480 appliance update, not need to do a new vcenter unless you have no other choice. before you do that if you have support I'd also up an SR just to make sure thats needed.
