My vCenter 7 (latest version) skyline health is not working. The message is "The current status of Internet connection is disabled. Online health checks are not available if the Internet connection is disabled." But obviously the connection is enabled, I can update vCenter, or ping anywhere via ssh, so the problem is elsewhere.
Reading around, it seems a certificate problem. I tried to renew certificates with usr/lib/vmware-vmca/bin/certificate-manager , option 8, all seems ok, but the problem remained.
I did the following test:
root@vcenter-db [ ~ ]# curl -iv https://vcsa.vmware.com
* Trying 127.0.0.3:443...
* Connected to vcsa.vmware.com (127.0.0.3) port 443 (#0)

curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
More details here: https://curl.se/docs/sslcerts.html
curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.
So, it seems indeed a certificate problem, but I don't know what to do now...
