I'm getting errors trying to setup vCNS 5.5.3 with my vCAC 6.1 setup.
These are both fresh installs, but I'm receiving the following errors in vCAC trying to do a data collection.
Workflow 'vSphereVCNSInventory' failed with the following exception: Could not reach vCenter Orchestrator endpoint {0}. Trying the next highest priority endpoint.
I found this KB Article relating to this error, noting an issue with data collection if you're using a load balancer in NSX which I am not.
According to the support matrix, these are supported.

Is anyone else having a similar error?
It sounds like the vCO endpoint in vCAC is still mis-configured.
Is the URL path for vCO: https://<FQDN to vCO Server>:8281/vco/
And the custom property VMware.VCenterOrchestrator.Priority added to the endpoint?
Do you have a vCO endpoint configured in vCAC?
The NSX/vCNS integration for vCAC 6.1 calls vCO workflows that are part of the NSX plugin. That means you have to configure a vCO endpoint that has the NSX plugin installed in order for vCAC to start configuring NSX/vCNS components.

I guess you need add vCO as endpoint first, before add NSX or vCNS.
You can add internal vCO from VCAC appl.
For example: https://srv-vcacapp01.home.lab:8281/vco

So an update.
I removed the vcns checkbox and still get the error. I think my vCAC server can't communicate with vCO but I don't know why.
I rebuilt both vCO and vCAC and made sure they were all on the same SSO Server but that didn't make any difference. Also a complete rebuild of both vCAC and vCO left me with the same error.
Is anyone successfully using vCO 5.5.3 and vCAC 6.1 together?
Workflow 'vSphereVCNSInventory' failed with the following exception: Could not reach vCenter Orchestrator endpoint {0}. Trying the next highest priority endpoint.
I wonder if somehow the load balancing in the vCNS is set to "IP hash" by default?
Two things that got me:
1: Firewall from vcac/iaas to vco
2: You need to install the NSX plugin on vco if it is an external instance
Download VMware NSX for vSphere
Good luck!
No firewalls in place, and the NSX plugin is installed on my external vCO appliance.

wow, really embarrassed.
I had the https://vcoserver.domain.local:8281 but not a /vco at the end.
Simple fix that I should've found.
Thanks for everyones help.
