Hi,
I have a vsphere 5.5 environment setup. It has vcenter 5.5, VUM, and all the pre-reqs (inventory service, etc) on seperate servers, with a shared SQL Server.
This is on a HP Proliant DL160e, all supported. Lately when I connect to the vcenter server from the vsphere client, the esxi host shows as "disconnected".
I have tried to reboot the vcenter server (the Windows version), set the managed ip address of vcenter, but still no luck. The only thing I can think of is that recently (just before this issue) I have introduced a firewall that is the default gateway of the vcenter server (and all other vm's) but the host itself is on the public ip (to change to a private ip in the same subnet with the same gateway). Could this cause the issue?
Please help
