I just built a new vCenter 5.5 server and started a fresh database on SQL2012 which is located on a separate server. Last night while the SQL server was being patched/rebooted we could not connect to vCenter and eventually restated the services. Seems simple and common sense that this would happen, but it never happened before on our old vCenter 5.0 server and SQL2008 database server. I'm wondering if I missed a setting when building the new vCenter server that would reconnect to the DB once it became available. Any ideas?
TIA
Troy
