Hello again Bayu,
So I took the first suggestion and I upgraded the NSX to version 6.2 (my GOD that took a lot of time!)
Now I'm following the time sync configuration and I found a problem (I was using different NTPs or there were no NTP servers configured). So I set up everybody to server 0.pool.ntp.org.
That is: ESXi Host (using web client), NSX Manager (using NSX manager web interface) and vCenter Server Appliance (using CLI commands)
Now I'm having this issue with the time zones:
NTP config |
---|
For vCenter Server Appliance:
Fri Mar 31 16:08:16 UTC 2017
For ESXi host:
Fri Mar 31 17:06:50 UTC 2017
For NSX Manager:
Fri Mar 31 12:06:32 EDT 2017
As you can see, vCenter and ESXi share the same time zone (UTC) but differs in 1 hour.
And the NSX Manager uses EDT time zone (which BTW is the one I should use)
Now I was looking at: vCenter 5.5 Cannot change timezone
And to this other couple of URLs: Adjusting ESX host Time Zone (1436) | VMware KB & https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2057956
And as a conclusion (correct me if I'm wrong) I have the following scenario:
I can not change the timezone for vCenter using the vCenter console (Already checked)
I can not change the timezone for ESXi host version 5.x plus using CLI commands (did not checked, just read about it)
The only way I see is this: vSphere 6.0 Documentation Center
Which is connecting to the vCenter Server Appliance (using: https://IPaddressVCENTER:5480) but I can't. Is like that service is not available. I also have browsed through the vCenter console but there's not too many options in there.
What would be the recommendation? What would you do?
Because everytime I try any configuration, the error is regarding the NTP misconfiguration.
I'm losing my mind.... SOS.
