Issue/Introduction
Taking an ESXi host on maintenance mode fails although the expected VIBS are successfully installed.
Environment
VMware NSX for vSphere 6.3.x
Cause
This issue occurs due to the sanity check failing after the upgrade.
After an upgrade, an NSX sanity check is done. If the sanity check fails for some reason, NSX does not take the ESXi host out of maintenance mode.
Resolution
This issue is resolved in VMware NSX for vSphere 6.3.3.
To work around this issue if you do not want to upgrade, manually reboot the ESXi host. Once the reboot completes, manually remove the ESXi host out of maintenance mode.
