This error indicates that the Cloud Director was trying to verify connections with non-existent cells.
As a result, the Cloud Director UI continued to display these outdated IP addresses from the previous Linux setup, which were marked "inactive
" in the Cloud Cells.
To resolve the issue, the following steps were taken:
1. Removed the outdated Linux Cells from the Cloud Director configuration through the UI.
2. Rebooted the Cloud Director services.
systemctl restart vmware-vcd
3. Review Logs using:
tail -f cell /opt/vmware/vcloud-director/logs/cell.log
4. Confirmed successful logins to the UI after the changes, with no further errors.
