To resolve this issue please validate and resolve the items defined herein.
This issue can occur due to the following:
1) The IP that is assigned to the VCH, is already assigned.(Duplicate IP)
2) If using --ops-usr in the deployment command. The user does not have required access and or permissions to the defined vCenter or vCenter database
3) The environments network firewall is blocking the required ports
Validate ESXi host Firewall ports are allowed:
- Allow outbound TCP traffic to port 2377 on the endpoint VM, for use by the interactive container shell.
- Allow inbound HTTPS/TCP traffic on port 443, for uploading to and downloading from datastores.
- Access to the VCH Administration Portal port 2378
- VCH docker connectivity port 2376
- Admiral portal port 8282
4) Verify the network configuration from vCenter to VCH client network and vice-versa. To test this, verify if it is possible to deploy one VCH with --client-network as the Management network where vCenter is located and have successful deployment.
