View ArticleRe: unable to resolve hostname during ESXi installation
Just to rule this out. Can you please double check the hostname and domain name configured on the ESXi host to ensure there's no typo which causes the issue? André

Thanks, I wanted to check before possibly wasting a lot of time looking into it to only find out it was a View issue.
View ArticleRe: Vsphere Performance Data for View Assigned VM
No problem. I would try to narrow the scope down by seeing if other VMs are affected and if it's a host issue or a global vCenter issue. You could then work your way into making sure the roll up jobs...
