Upgraded all our vCenters to 5.5U2. Also upgraded to latest Vsphere replication as well. No issues. All working well.
Tried to (re)install SRM components with 5.8
One site is using Windows vCenter, and upgrade went fine, using P12 CA signed cert during installation.
Other site is using Vcenter appliance. When installing SRM 5.8 and p12 cert, receive the following:
---
Failed to validate certificate:
Details:
VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager's client certificate is not trusted by vCenter Server.
---
and unable to continue
Tried installing the intermediate cert on the Windows SRM host. Also tried adding the intermediate cert into the P12 cert but receive message about the cert not being correct.
Feel that that is something to do with the intermediate cert not being given to the vCenter server, thus unable to fully validate the cert chain. Dont know if this can be installed on the vCenter appliance so it is able to validate the chain that way.
Have logged a call regarding this but wondering if anyone has come across this and might have a workaround.
