To resolve this issue, you must modify the SMS and the Profile Driven Storage service.
To modifying the SMS:
-
Open the extension.xml file located at C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server\extensions\ com.vmware.vim.sms using a text editor.
- Locate the entry with http://localhost/sms/health.xml.
-
Edit this entry to include the custom port that is used. For example, if the custom port used is 81, change the entry to:
http://localhost:81/sms/health.xml
-
Save and close the file.
Modifying the Profile Driven Storage service:
Note: Due to changes in vCenter Server 5.5 ports, these steps do not change Profile Driven Storage service port.
- Open the extension.xml file located at C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server\extensions\ com.vmware.vim.sps using a text editor.
- Locate the entry with http://localhost/sps/health.xml.
- Edit this entry to include the custom port that is used. For example, if the custom port used is 81, change the entry to:
http://localhost:81/sps/health.xml
- Save and close the file.
