Cause

VxRail manager runs the radar proactive health check once per day. It includes a vxverify health check which includes a certificate verification check. That check includes an API call to the vCenter that is attempted without vCenter credentials.

Resolution

The check is incidental, and not necessary for the proactive health check. The error can be ignored.

Fix:
Upgrade to VxRail 7.0.481 and later or 8.0.201 and later

Affected Products

VxRail Appliance Family, VxRail Appliance Series, VxRail Software
