I recently did a fresh install of vCenter 5.5, and then upgraded my hosts to 5.5 from 5.0 and moved them into the new vCenter. I have noticed a slight problem with vCenter. I can log into it without any issues using the web client. It logs in the first time I try every time. However, when I try to log into the same vCenter server with the Windows "fat" client, it has problems logging in, and I have to try several (5-10 times or more) before it will finally log in. It gives the following error:
"The vSphere Client could not connect to "<vCenter>". The server '<vCenter>' took too long to respond. (The command has timed out as the remote server is taking too long to respond.)"
I am not sure why the web client logs in without a problem while the Windows client is very hit-and-miss with getting in. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!
