Hello Team,

Running VMMark 3.1.1 against a 4 host setup.

Num of hosts: 4
ESXi version: VMware ESXi, 8.0.1, 21495797
Processor Type: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 5218 CPU @ 2.30GHz
Logical Processors: 64 (per host)
Prime client running with a single NIC. The client VMs and VMmark VMs are running on the same cluster.
No of tiles: 2
Storage : vSAN

When running the test, it fails with the below error:

The process failed to start. RC: 25, STAFResult: Trust level 5 required for the PROCESS service's START request

The host file is updated correctly and VMs are reachable. Trust level is 5 on all VMs.

Attachments: Results folder including the VMMark properties files.

Looking forward for expert inputs to get over this and complete the testing.

Regards,

Niyaz
