Hello,
We have installed vCloud Director 10.1.1 TPA licence. After successful installation and IP assignment the server is accessible from any other server and we are able to login via root user.
But when we try to login directly via a putty client then we are getting access denied error.
It is taking us to the login prompt but simply not accepting the password. I confirm the password meet the vCloud password requirement (min 8 char, 1 or more Uppercase, lowercase, special char, number).
It would be helpful if anyone can point out what we are doing wrong here. Any help is highly appreciated.

Hello all,
Cloud Director 10.1.1, trying to remove the imported network in this Org vCD, the last network that needs to be removed before I can delete the Org, however I get the following error:
Error: [ acca0af6-3af5-4503-9341-b7e4037fa1df ] Entity external-dhcp-1 cannot be deleted, because it is in use.
Nothing is connected to this network, in fact this segment is already removed from NSX-T manager along with the T1 gateway it was connected to.
Any clues on how to get rid of this network? Thanks in advance!
Hello,
during installation or configuration check with PKS I get red error message 'access_token'.

There is more detailed output from cse check:

Hello,
When I start up the VCD appliance, I am getting the error message Failed to start User Manager for UID 1003
I went into the log and it says the user password has expired
Is there a way to reset the vcloud user password via CLI when I can't start the UI?
we are facing an issue in vCloud configuration.
Issue description:
We are creating a vCloud 10.1.1 set up. We have successfully installed and configured the vSphere and vCenter and resources are visible in the vCenter.
All other installations and configurations are also done successfully (PostgreSQL, NTP, NFS, NSX etc..).
We then installed vCloud director and vCenter is added. After successful vCloud installation and addition of vCenter in the vCloud, resource pool is not showing in provider VCDS.
Are we are something/doing something wrong.
After I run this command:
cse install -c encrypted-config.yaml --ssh-key /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
I get this error below:
Creating vApp 'ubuntu-16.04_k8-1.17_weave-2.6.0_temp'
CSE Installation Error. Check CSE install logs
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Is there any requirements to add a vcenter to a Provider VDC that I am missing? I can't add a vcenter in Provider in vCloud Director version: 10.0.0.14636284 When I go to create the Provider VDC,
even though I have Vcenter added successfully and added to the organization
Has anyone seen this before? Thanks for all your help!

I have a 3 node vCloud Director cluster, running as 1 primary and 2 standby nodes.
The repmgr cluster show command returns results you would expect to see.
If I run the repmgr cluster matrix however, I see that the node cannot SSH to the other nodes and therefor returns unknown status for the other 2 nodes.

Hello team,
I am looking for some advice on the ports needed for Catalog Sync.
I have two vclouds, one in the USA, one in Ireland, and we will sync across corporate Lan.
Outbound traffic from the USA -> Ireland is fine, and I can sync an exported USA Catalog on Ireland site.
However, I am unable to connect to a catalog exported in Ireland when I try to connect to it from the USA side.
Assuming this is all inbound firewall ports blocked.
Looking at the network requirements, I am assuming the only ports needed for catalogue sync [inbound ] are 443 & 22
Can anyone confirm if my assumptions are correct?
Thank you
Hi,
I have setup a vCD 10.0 instance and want to configure the system for the first time (Steps like adding system administrator/Connection a vCenter etc).
However, when I access the [vCD-FQDN], I see the provider login page all the time.
Is there any default user/password for first time configuration? How do I configure it?
Hello!
I use:
VMware Cloud Director version: 10.1.0.15967236
NSX-v 6.4.6.14819921
Task:
Create a VDC Template That Includes Routed Networking via API
Try headers application/*+json;version=34.0 and application/*+json;version=33.0
When I instantiate a vDC template, everything is fine, except that the interface with the internal network is Disconnected.
If executed the command through the UI - that's ok and interface Connected.
When I was trace commands, I saw that a value was being passed <isConnected>false</isConnected> despite the specified value in api request <Connected>true</Connected>

To perform a mifration ftom NSX-V to NSX-T with vCloud director, you can use the VMware NSX Migration for VMware Cloud Director 1.0 (downlodable from myvmware)
In the user guide I see the compatibility matrix:
VMware Cloud Director | VMware NSX Data Center for vSphere | VMware NSX-T Data Center |
10.1.0 | 6.4.4 6.4.5 6.4.6 | 2.5.1 |
I need to migrate to NSX-T 3.0.
is it possible to have info on when the migration tool will support migration to NSX-T 3.0 ?
