      <description>&lt;P&gt;Ah! I found something useful in 'Integration'. So I re-added the password, accepted the new vCenter Server certificate, clicked Save, and now I see that vSphere in a Collecting state. Thanks for the help!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Harry - thanks for the suggestion. I've searched the Log Insight 8.10 interface, but can't find anyplace to do this. Pointer, please! Thanks.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I just upgraded our vRealize Log Insight server from 8.6 to 8.10. Following this, I used the&amp;nbsp;steps in &lt;A title="https://docs.vmware.com/en/vrealize-log-insight/8.10/com.vmware.log-insight.administration.doc/guid-93e0a9fa-9c72-47ae-9e54-9982f4604fe1.html" href="https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Log-Insight/8.10/com.vmware.log-insight.administration.doc/GUID-93E0A9FA-9C72-47AE-9E54-9982F4604FE1.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Log-Insight/8.10/com.vmware.log-insight.administration.doc/GUID-93E0A9FA-9C72-47AE-9E54-9982F4604FE1.html&lt;/A&gt; to create a new self-signed certificate and upload it to the vRealize Log Insight server; I can see (looking at the cert presented to my Chrome browser) that this operation was successful.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But now I'm getting an email from the Log Insight server:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"This alert is about your Log Insight installation on &lt;A href="https://ldpdc225.hop.lab.emc.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://abc.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;vCenter auto-configuration failed triggered at 2023-04-10T17:28:05.431Z&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;vCenter task auto-configuration failed for the following hosts:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;xxx.com&lt;BR /&gt;yyy.com&lt;BR /&gt;zzz.com&lt;BR /&gt;{"key":"com.vmware.loginsight.vsphere.config.VimVsphereConfigurer.cannotConnect","params":[]}&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;This message was generated by your Log Insight installation, visit the &lt;A href="https://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/log-insight-pubs.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Documentation Center&lt;/A&gt; for more information."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm assuming that this issue was caused by my update to the Log Insight server certificate. But I can't find any documentation that tells me what to do about it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the help!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;tl&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for finding this. It's interesting, but it seems to apply to a VMware REST API, and not to the ovf descriptor file. I think.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;tl&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks very much for the fast reply. Looking at DSP0243, I'm finding the depth of information that I seek.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm trying to introduce stricter value checking in my product's .ovf file for several values, including IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. I would have thought that the standard would include validators for these basic requirements. But I only find this example, which doesn't do any validation:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2425 &amp;lt;Property ovf:key="app_ip" ovf:type="string" ovf:defaultValue="192.168.0.10"&amp;gt;&lt;BR /&gt;2426 &amp;lt;Description&amp;gt;The IP address of this appliance&amp;lt;/Description&amp;gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any thoughts on how best to do validation of IPv4/IPv6 addresses?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;vCloud Director 5.5.3&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a vApp with ~30 VMs. I want to test a situation where two of the VMs in my vApp must communicate through a firewall. Specifically, I want to set up this firewall to only allow the ssh protocol to be used to communicate between these two systems.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Within the vApp, I click the Networking tab, right-click the network used to connect the VMs and select 'Configure Services...'. I click the Firewall tab, select 'Enable firewall', for 'Default action' I select Allow. When I click Ok then Apply, I see that all of my VMs can communicate with each other.&amp;nbsp; So far, so good.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I again select 'Configure Services...', click the Firewall tab, and click Add to add a specific firewall rule. As an initial test, I want to create a rule that will block all access between two of the VMs in my vApp. In the 'Add Firewall Rule' page, I select/enter:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Enabled [checked]&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Name: "Block access between A and B"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Source: 192.168.2.108&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Source port: any&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Destination: 192.168.2.125&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Destination port: any&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Protocol: any&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Action: Deny&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Log network traffic for firewall rule [checked]&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I've clicked Ok on the 'Edit Firewall Rule' page, clicked 'OK' on the 'Configure Services...' page, and then clicked 'Apply' on the vApp' 'Networking' page. When I go back into 'Configure services...', Firewall tab, I see that the rule that I created has a green check in the Enabled column.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yet, when I log in to 192.168.2.108, I'm able to ping 192.168.2.125.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As a test, I clicked the Networking tab, right-clicked the network used to connect the VMs and select 'Configure Services...'. I clicked the Firewall tab, selected 'Enable firewall', for 'Default action' I selected Deny. When I click Ok then Apply, I found that all of the VMs in my vApp could not communicate with each other.&amp;nbsp; So, I see that the firewall must be functional.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What could I have done wrong to have this not work?&amp;nbsp; Have I run into a defect in vCD 5.5.3?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;tl&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

I'm only interested in the SNMP traps generated by ESXi 6, and in the information (events, messages, criticality, etc.) contained in those traps.

I now see "config.vpxd.ResourceManager.maxCostPerHost = 3" in the 'Advance3d vCenter Server Settings' list.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But, when I ran my application that creates VMs, I see that six templates are simultaneously deploying (I had hoped to limit this to 3). So it appear this setting is either being ignored, or is not limiting the number of simultaneous template deployments.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What else can I try?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;tl&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

Every time I test this software, at least one of the deployment operations terminates with an 'Operation timed out' status. The servers running my ESXi 6.0 environment are older, and probably underpowered for this task. But I can't upgrade them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;How can I tune my ESXi environment to limit the number of concurrent template deployments?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;tl&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
