Add Host fails error - Root CA certificate is missing or failed to initialize

[alpatio]

Hi,

I'll have Vsphere 6.0 update 2 and when I try to add a new ESXi node I'll have the following error:

A general system error occurred: Unable to get signed certificate for host: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Error: The Root CA certificate is missing or failed to initialize (70000)

Apparently is a certificate issue.

I'll appreciate any help on this.

Best regards.

Hi,

What is the ESXi version?

Thanks.

Hi,

ESXi claims to be ESXi 6.0.0 (VmKernel Release Build 3620759)

and

Vsphere Web client is release 6.0.0 Release Build 3617395

But, a couple of month ago I already added some other ESXi using the same version and I didn't had any issue.
