VSI 6.1 on VSphere Web Clien 5.5
I installed the .ova provided by EMC yesterday and everything seemed to go smoothly. When I went to the Admin page though, "Service Info" field was blank and I am unable to register with my Vcenter. I read through the documentation provided, but I did not see any steps that I am missing. This is on a closed network with no Inter net access. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully,
Chris Priester

FYI - a hotfix has been created for this issue and the fix will be released in the next VSI version.

The deployment is straightforward so I can't see you missing any steps. If you have not already, I would try rebooting the vApp and if that doesn't resolve it, redeploy it. I have not seen this particular issue, however.

Thanks for the quick response. I have deployed several times and even download the .ova twice thinking it was a corrupt download. Attached are some screenshots of what I am seeing. When I go to the Register VSI Plugin tab, all of the options are grayed out.

Something is obviously messed up. When I click submit, it just sits there and spins. Nothing is being retrieved.

Chris if you can go to the Show Log and run "Submit" and send me the contents off-list: drew.tonnesen@emc.com
Thanks.

You can manage the VSI vApp by pointing your browser to https://IP:5480
The default credentials are root/emc (also noted in the Product Guide in the link above).

You can also get the logs by doing the following, from the VSI 6.1 Product Guide on pages 68,69. The guide is available here - https://support.emc.com/docu52909_VSI_for_VMware_vSphere_Web_Client_6.1_Product_Guide.pdf?language=en_US

Was anything changed under "Manage Users"? If you click there, do you see any users other than 'admin'? If you can get there please send a screenshot.

Do you happen to know the default user/password to log into the actual VM.

When I go to the manage Users tab, there is nothing listed, not even "admin"

Is there an option to add the 'admin' user?

Thanks for the replies. When I try to create the admin user, I just get a spinning circle in the top left corner and nothing happens. I did get into the vApp to look at the logs and nothing is standing out as an error. I get a few warnings, but no errors. Does this vApp need to be connected to the Internet to pull any information, or is there any other peices that I need to install along with .ova? I am currently at a loss here.

Please open an SR.

Sounds good. It'll help to get the VSI logs as I mentioned above and attach those to the SR as well.
I don't believe you'd need internet access or any other pieces I can think of for this to work.
