Vcloud Director not showing Vcenter data.

[guptatarun1989]

Hi Guys,

    I installed VCD 5.5 ,vsheild Manager and vcenter on a single  ESXi 5.5 .I am facing issues with VCloud Director.Although i have attached the Vcenter Sucessfully in VCD ,data from vcenter is not poping up in Vcd. Therefore Host list is empty .no resouce pool are coming in Vcd.

Below are my questions coming in my mind ..i feel i might be doing wrong

1 .Can i Install VCD 5.5 ,vsheild Manager and vcenter on a single  ESXi 5.5 host?

2 .Is it a license issue..although all of them are licensed till 2015.?

3. Do i need to Manually install Vcd agent on ESXi ..although i feel this should be done automatically?..if yes how to do that.

Please tell me where i can be wrong .

I have attached the snapshots of Vcenter and VCD .Please look into those and Help me Out

Any answers will be appreciated .

Thanks,

Tarun Gupta

you need to create a Provider vDC before anything will appear.  this requires DRS to be on (if you haven't done so already), and typically requires two hosts in a cluster.  this is because you need to enter maintenance mode to install the agent properly, and can vmotion powerd on VMs to one host while the other prepares.  this is all part of the installation and admin guide.
