VMware Cloud Director 10.5.1.x
Container Service Extension 4.2
If the Syslog is configured and if the connectivity between CSE and Syslog fails, CSE cluster operations are blocked.
Check if there is any firewall rule on syslog server that blocks traffic (TCP port 514) from CSE server and also from routed org VDC network to Syslog server.
As a workaround, remove the Syslog configuration and continue with the usual CSE operations.
Ideally Syslog server connection issue should not block Cluster CRUD operations. VMware by Broadcom is aware of this issue and working to resolve this in a future release, specifically in CSE version 4.3.0.
