Building up a brand new VMware environment and attempting to setup the vCenter Server Appliance. It was successfully imported into a host, it runs, I can connect to it over the network on both 5480 and 9443, but I can not get it to join my Active Directory Domain. Using the wizard or the management page only yields an "Error. Enabling Active Directory Failed". Not much help there. If I go on the console and run the command "vpxd_servicefg ad wrie username 'password' domain" it still fails, but at least it gives an error of "VC_CFG_RESULT=302(Error: Enabling Active Directory failed."
I was able to add all the hosts to AD and even a VM running Win 2K8. I just can't get the vCenter Server Appliance to join. I tried Googling for some solutions, but haven't come across much of anything useful. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
