Another short one.
This happened to me in version 5.5. I set a host in maintenance mode in a cluster, and all VMs moved, but when entering maintenance mode the host stalled at 68%.
KB 1002412 states that this is either a vcenter problem or a time problem. I offer a 3rd solution.
Connect to the host through drac and restart the management agents. The host will disconnect and reconnect, and now entering maintenance mode will work ok.
drac = dell = evil lol
ReplyDelete:) good observation though, i should assume everyone else will use drac!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this post you just saved me a lot of headache!
ReplyDeleteAwesome post! This just saved me a lot of time. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteThis does work using HP ILO / OA as well for those not using Dell...
