Hello,
we have an ESXi 5.0 that cannot be joined to vCenter 5.1
It fails with timed out waiting for vpxa to start.
the problem seems coming from:
/opt/vmware/vpxa/vpx # ls -lah
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 512 Mar 8 12:40 .
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 29.7k Aug 19 2011 .#vpxResultFilter.xml
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 512 May 10 2012 ..
/opt/vmware/vpxa/vpx # rm -rf .\#vpxResultFilter.xml
rm: cannot remove '.#vpxResultFilter.xml': Operation not permitted
this file cannot be deleted.
The host has failed to join vCenter previously and the vpxa could not be uninstalled nor installed.
please you help
thank
