ProxySvc'] SSL Handshake failed for stream

[jfoutwest]

Built a new vCenter Appliance 5.5u3 to replace a vCenter 5.5u2 Windows server which managed two existing ESXi 5.5u2 hosts

Used the default internally signed certificates.

Seeing the following warnings in the vpxd.log

2016-02-04T00:37:39.789Z [7F33B1A24700 warning 'ProxySvc'] SSL Handshake failed for stream <io_obj p:0x00007f33a40d5550, h:93, <TCP 'x.x.x.x:443'>, <TCP 'x.x.x.x:51555'>>, error: N7Vmacore3Ssl12SSLExceptionE(SSL Exception: error:14094416:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert certificate unknown)

Will patching/upgrading these ESXi hosts to u3 mitigate these warnings? Thank you.

Hi jfoutwest,

Just wondering if you are still able to login to vCenter and can see the hosts after the upgrade/update? I'm suspecting not - I'd also take a look at this article to see if it is similar to what you are seeing: VMware KB: After upgrading to vCenter Server 5.5 Update 1, logging in to vCenter Server reports the ...

Kind regards.

Hello,

I am still able to log into vCenter and see the hosts. I built a new vCenter Appliance and joined the two existing ESXi hosts to this vCenter. I reviewed KB (2074942) and this is specific to a vCenter on a Windows host. Should I regenerate the certificate through the VCSA admin console? Thanks for your direction.
