Have just upgraded W28k R2 VC VM from v5.0 U3 to 6.0 U1, with embedded PSC and local SQL.
50% of the time when we try and us the locally installed vSphere Client to connect we get a failure because "the remote server took too long to respond"
Remote vSphere clients seem OK.
Re-install didn't improve matters.
Anyone got any ideas?
vcenter log shows:
