Issue/Introduction

SDDC vSphere license usage is out of sync after removing one of the vCenter server in Enhanced Linked mode

From the domainmanager.log we will see entries as below.

ERROR [vcf_dm] [c.v.e.s.c.s.a.l.LicenseValidationUtil,http-nio-127.0.0.1-7200-exec-10]  License validation failed with insufficient capacity. Requires 6 CPU packages while the currently reserved CPU packages are 0 and available are 0

Environment

SDDC Version 5.2.1.2

Cause

Stale  service registration for "cis.vmonapi"  entries  causes this issue that are left during breaking of ELM 

Resolution

1 . Engage Broadcom Support by opening a case to identify stale entries and remove them. 

2. Along with vCenter server support bundle upload the LDIF entries for vCenter server to the case  using KB https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/326305/how-to-export-vmdir-information-from-vce.htm
