I have 2 esxi 5 U2 hosts just spun up. I set the management IP & DNS etc...
So when I go to do the "Test Management Network" thing from the console, the ping test for pinging the DNS name fails. The rest (DNS Servers & Router) work.
Now when I putty into the the host I can ping itself.....of course. I can ping all IP's.
Nest I added the entries to the hosts file.....
192.168.0.100 servername.somethin.net servername
Usually works but not this time.
Niether the short name or the FQDN works.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
