Issues of Server Administrator on VMware ESX Operating Systems

  • DF354388: Remote Server Administrator Web Server connection to a managed node hangs, if a redundant virtual disk containing syslog dumps fails.
    • If you configure the syslog to store logs on a remote virtual disc (VD), and remove the remote VD without reconfiguring the syslog to a valid location, the Server Administrator web server screen stops responding.
    • To continue using the Server Administrator Web server, restart the management services on the managed node.
  • BITS072069: On ESX/ESXi Operating Systems, Server Administrator configuration changes are not persisted after an unclean shutdown.
    • If the server abruptly reboots, configuration changes to Server Administrator Preferences are not retained on VMware ESX or ESXi operating systems. Once an hour, VMware runs a scheduled backup to update any configuration changes to the installed applications (VIBs). For more information, refer to the Knowledge Base article at - http://Kb.vmware.com/kb/2001780
  • BITS119710: On systems running the VMware ESXi operating system, the TOE status of a network controller is not available.
  • On ESXi 5.5 and later operating systems, NIC cards using Native drivers display limited information on Server Administrator.
