Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:
Using the Customization Specification after upgrading to vCenter Server 6.0 fails with error:

The public key in the specification does not match the vCenter public key. You have to reenter the password in order to proceed.

  1. Connect to the vCenter Server using the vSphere Web Client and log in with administrator permissions.
  2. Select Policies and Profiles > Customization Specification Manager.
  3. Right-click the specification and click Edit.
