In this chapter, we covered some of the not-so-common challenges an administrator could encounter in the vSphere environment. It provided the troubleshooting along with the solutions to the following issues:
Seeing NO objects after logging into vCenter with the account you used to install it
How to get past the VPXD must be stopped error when you are performing certain tasks within vCenter
Removing the unwanted plugins from vCenter Server
In the next chapter you will learn how to be prepared for every administrator's nightmare, recovering a vSphere environment. We provide guidance on how to protect the investment made in putting together your vCenter solution. We also learnt what you need to backup, and the process to perform the backup, which is just as important as the recovery process.
