I've tried everything thing is this thread from:
1) pre-populating DNS
2) Using user@domain instead of domain/user
3) explicitly adding each user tested to vCenter VM (in vCenter) as an administrator
4) Using both the FQDN and IP of vCenter server
5) Creating a local (non-domain) account
6) Delete VCP appliance and deploy new
Any combination of the above resulted in the following:
Specified user either is not a dedicated VDP user or does not have sufficient vCenter privileges to administer VDP
How in the world does one get this product to actually work?
