Idm client exception: Error trying to join AD, error code [42502]

[Killer2o3]

Trying to join a vCenter VM to an Active Directory Domain, but I get this error and I can't find anything about what this error code is online.

Which user you are using to join the vcenter to the domain??

You should be using a domain account which has rights to join any machine to your domain.

Ok so I was able to join to my directory after adding the vCenter machine itself to the domain controllers group in my domain's Active Directory Users and Computers
