Restore a vCenter and VASA Provider connection
Prerequisites
Beginning with PowerStore 4.0 on systems with the Verify SSL server certificate checkbox enabled, changing the hostname of the vCenter server may impact the connection between PowerStore and the vCenter. The change in hostname may modify the machine SSL certificate and the VMCA root certificate. The certificates then become untrusted by PowerStore.
This can occur when:
- The hostname is changed from an IP address to an FQDN.
- The hostname is changed from an FQDN to an IP address.
- The hostname is changed from an IP address to a new IP address.
About this task
Steps
-
In
PowerStore Manager, update the connection to vCenter as outlined in
Change a vCenter Server connection.
After updating the vCenter connection, the vCenter Status should appear as Configured, Connected.
- If the VASA Registration Status still appears as Offline in PowerStore Manager, manually unregister and re-register the VASA provider in vCenter. See Manually register the VASA provider in vCenter Server.
