Not able to login to vCloud director 10.1.1 IP via SSH using putty client

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.

Unable to remove imported network

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'.
CSE version: 2.6.1

Can somebody please explain what error message 'access_token' means?

There is more detailed output from cse check:

I have a 3 node vCloud Director cluster, running as 1 primary and 2 standby nodes.

Ports requried for Catalog Sync?

$

Hello team,

 

https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-Director/9.1/com.vmware.vcloud.install.doc/GUID-EAD4BD34-978E-43FA-9054-0FC128B25784.html

 

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

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

https://pastebin.com/PWVF8gQN

 

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>
