Friends, please help me.
We have vCenter 6.0 U2 (appliance) with PSC and we are trying to renew the certificates through the certificate manager, option 3. We followed this KB https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2112283
The problem is when we put the IP of the PSC it returns this error:
Option[1 to 8]: 3
Please provide valid SSO and VC priviledged user credential to perform certificate operations.
Enter username [Administrator@vsphere.local]:
Enter password:
Performing operation on distributed setup, Please provide valid Infrastructure Server IP.
Server : 10.1.5.43
