Just set up UM 2.3 and got it connected to vCenter fine. However, when I try and create rules for customer VMs, I get the error:
"The server cannot be contacted at this time"
There is a hardware firewall between UM and vCenter. I opened ports 80 and 443 so that UM could talk to vCenter. I'm thinking there are other ports required. Does anyone have a list of firewall ports that UM 2.3 needs open?
Thanks!
Hi. Thanks for letting us know about the problem. Using Firefox + Firebug, or Chrome, we can diagnose this with you. Would you be willing to have a remote session (Skype, WebEx) with us? If so, please email me: dbriccetti@vmware.com.
I think I found the issue.
Apprently you can't create rules until after a collection cycle has run. I waited a couple hours and retried, worked fine.
Thanks!
Jeff
Jeff,
Normally you would expect to see this message:
Cannot create rules until after the first collection
So the connect to server error may still be unexplained. But I’m glad things are working for you.
