Environment:
vSphere version:6.0.0
VMware vCenter Server version:6.0.0
Esxi 6.0
Problem:
I am getting a problem when I Opening a virtual machine console from vSphere Client fails with the error:Unable to connect to the MKS:Could not connect to pipe \\.pipe\vmware-authdpipe within retry period.
I have read the KB:"Unable to connect to MKS" error in vSphere Web Client (2115126) | VMware KB,but my ESXi did not migrate to other vc.
And I can not login on my ESXi server which managed by the vCenter.
But I trying to use the other cumputer in the same network segment can open the console and can login on the esxi server.
I am wondering if it is the problem of my own computer,but I can't locate the problem.
The FIEREWALL of my computer is closed, I've tried to reboot my computer and reinstall the VMware vSphere Client but it did not work.
Hi , This is may related to the DNS entry issue
Add the host DNS entry to file c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
10.1.1.0 HOST name , example below
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
10.1.1.1 esxi-test.vmlab.com
