Vcenter can't see certificate from vsphere host

Hello,

I have problem with VCenter. In UI I have this error:

ESXi Host Certificate Status

When I open settings and certificates I cannot see anything.

But when I open webgui on the host - it is ok.

  • vcsa restarted

Can you help me please?

It seems an error generated by an update of the Esxi version. Have you updated the Esxi host? or you installed version 6.7 directly

Hope you are doing fine:

Let me ask you  a few questions:
- Is this vSphere 6.7? Have you used flex client?
- Which browsers have you tied this?
- Are you using self signed or CA certificates?


Have you tried this?

1. Put ESXi in Maintenance Mode

2. Shut down and remove from inventory
3. Restart vCenter
4. Power on ESXi and check certificates.
5. Re connect ESXi host to vCenter
