NSX-T proxy crashes upon enabling Publish FQDN

Products

• VMware NSX Networking

Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:

• On the NSX-T manager, you have publish FQDN enabled, whereby transport node will use the FQDN to communicate with manager node and not the IP address.
• New configuration changes cannot be updated on the host temporarily.
• Checking the ESXi /var/run/vobd.log logs , you can see similar messages:

• Checking the ESXi /var/run/nsx-syslog log, we see the following entries:

nsx-proxy[52815696]:NSX 52815696 - [nsx@6876 comp="nsx-esx"subcomp="nsx-proxy" tid="52815702" level="INFO"] updateIPFqdnState called with list size

nsx-proxy[52815696]: NSX 52815696 - [nsx@6876 comp="nsx-esx" subcomp="nsx-proxy" tid="52815696" level="INFO"] NestdbClient::GetCcpStatusMessageCB: Start with size: -1144411644

Environment

VMware NSX-T Data Center 3.x
VMware NSX-T Data Center

Cause

The GetCcpStatusMessageCB has a reference to ccpList as an argument. This is because of passing locally created ccpList to updateIPFqdnState and the same list is being used as a reference argument to bind GetCcpStatusMessageCB.

Resolution

The issue is resolved in NSX-T 3.2.1.0 available at VMware Downloads.

Workaround:
If this issue is impacting, you can revert the publish FQDN settings.
