Hello,
I would like to know if anyone has restarted that vSphere Profile-Driven Storage Service and not effected vCenter and/or production services.
I currently do not use VM Storage Profiles, which is one of the things that this service does, but I might be missing another function.
I received an error message from vCOPs with this "VMware vCenter Storage Monitoring Service - Service initialization failed", and looked up the error and found that someone had the same issue, after upgrading from 5.1 to 5.5, which is my case too.
So, I change the username and password, from Local System Account, and not just need to restart it for changes to take affect.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
-Mike
