Hi,
I have an issue that I run into once in a while. I've got 2 sites with 1 vCenter. The vCenter server is located at the main site. For no apparent reason after a few weeks, my 2 hosts at the remote site will disconnect from vCenter, but not at the same time.
The behavior on the 2 hosts are the same :
- they loose connection only to vCenter.
- The 2 hosts are able to ping any other machines on the same vlan as the vCenter.
- On the vCenter side, I am not able to ping the hosts, but I am able to ping any other machines that are on the same vlan as the 2 hosts.
- The 2 hosts have complete access to the entire network (remote and main site) and are able to go on the Internet
- The weird thing is that if I do a traceroute to my vCenter when the host is disconnected, it doesn't even reach the gateway even if I ping the gateway and reach any machine on any vlan
1 * * *
2 * * *

- To correct the problem, I need to restart the host.
Has anyone seen anything like that?
Thanks a lot
Stephane
