Vmware Vcenter7.0证书web续期发生错误

1. 故障描述

vSphere Client 版本 7.0.2.00200
vCenter _MACHINE_CERT快到期了，通过web界面更新证书失败

第一步先这样，重新续订一下证书

续订发生错误
在这里插入图片描述

2. 解决办法

2.1. 前提工作

登陆ssh到vcenter，重新生成证书

先关掉HA，不然证书管理会报错。

Connected to service

    * List APIs: "help api list"
    * List Plugins: "help pi list"
    * Launch BASH: "shell"

Command> shell
Shell access is granted to root
root@localhost [ ~ ]# cd /usr/lib/vmware-vmca/bin/
root@localhost [ /usr/lib/vmware-vmca/bin ]# /usr/lib/vmware-vmca/bin/certificate-manager

Certificate Manager tool do not support vCenter HA systems

PSSSSSSSS:记得vCenter做备份，做快照

2.2. 生成计算机ssl证书

生成证书,选择第三个（PS，如果没有域名的，一定要写IP，不然很容易卡在85%,服务不能起来）

5. 报错

5.1. Error Failed to start vmon services.vmon-cli RC=1

When you go to read the “certificate-manager.log”, you see an entry like this:

Error Failed to start vmon services.vmon-cli RC=1

After a lot of searching on the internet, I sum up with this good article which helps me to solve my problem. The procedure is very simple, you just need to change the file permission of /etc/vmware/.buildInfo from 640 back to 444, SSH to your vCenter Server with root user and type following commands:

shell
chmod 444 /etc/vmware/.buildInfo
