I'm trying to join a Vcenter 8.01 to an AD domain but I get this error
idm client exception: Error trying to join AD, error code [40121],
anyone had found a fix for this ?
can you resolve the domain name from vcenter shell?
next place to look is the AD user you are using to join the domain, does that user have permission to join domain?
Are you using your domain controller's DNS on the vCenter?
It's the most comman cause for not joining to the DC

Hi all,
The problem with the error was a networking issue that we fixed but still we have something strange happening.
Now we're able to join, apparently, the vcenter to the domain:
- we see the Vcenter's computer object created in the AD
- we see the following in the vcenter
however after the required reboot, but even after a browser refresh, the situation gets back as we didn't do the join
