Failed to repoint PSC vCenter Appliance 6.5

seanpatterson · 2017-08-21T01:20:16.000Z

Running command:

cmsso-util reconfigure --repoint-psc PSC01.mydomain.local --username administrator --domain-name vsphere.local --passwd HardPassword

Returns:

Validating Provided Configuration …
Falied to open connection https://PSC01.mydomain.local:443/websso/ Error: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:661)>
Please check the configuration and retry

Any thoughts? I reissued Certs on both vCenter and PSC. both are version 6.5. This one has had me stumped for a few days now. I’ve tested the Connection manually, no errors. Everything has been restarted as well. Tried additional users with correct permissions, same thing.

Another day, same thing. Any thoughts anyone?

No question; I’d definitely open a ticket with VMware support.

Did you get to the bottom of this?

I’m having a running issue where the vmonapi service will not start on one of my vCentre servers after upgrade to the current build of vCentre,

I have a case open with VMware who are suggesting to re-generate the SSO Lookup service cert on the PSC, they linked me to incorrect documentation but as a test

I wanted to repoint the offending vCentre to another PSC but get the same error as you,

3 external PSC’s all upgraded to current build

5 VCSA’s with one upgraded but with this vmonapi error

Any help would be appreciated,

Cheers,

Neil
