Vcenter is disconnected

[p6du95]

Hi everyone,

I'm part of school group which is currently working on a vmware infrastructure.

Through the several past steps, we have installed a vmware Vcenter hosted on an ESXI.

The main we encounter is that our vcenter appears sometimes as disconnected on the vsphere client, without any further information ( it's up this morning, but it was down yesterday evening).

Consequently, all of our virtual machines , vlan and network configuration disappear ont the client.

We tried to update it ( from version 6.7 to 7) , to relaunch it multiple times , to reinstall it but without any results.

In our setup, we have a pfsense which have the role of an internet gateway; maybe it has an impact on the configuration, but it has no restricted rules applied

If anyone has some ideas to solve this problem, it will be a great help

Thanks

Paul

Thanks for the reply,

We already did that but it doesn't work so much; it just decrease a bit the frequency of "vcenter deconnexion".

However the probleme is still there.

Any other ideas ?
