HI
I am trying to deploy ovf template for vSphere replication appliance and after few days it will not deploy. I did this many times however now it will not do it
I tried different replication appliances but this error always come back some people say just change browser but it didnt work that simple
When I log into vCenter i log using FQDN but this doesnt help
On the same server i deployed Orchestrator appliance and this worked good not sure what is the catch with replication appliance 8.7 8.5 none of them will install
Check if your FQDN is resolving through your DNS. Also check if Certifcate contains FQDN as Certificate Subject Alternative Name.

Adding this here in case this helps someone else.
In our vCenter 7.0u3 instance we ended up using a "Content Library" to upload the OVA/OVF to first. Once that was done we could then use this to deploy the OVA/OVF as a VM using Actions -> "New VM from this Template...". It prompted for all the parameters we expected and it deployed the VM as needed. All of our other attempts using older methods to deploy an OVA/OVF from earlier verions failed for us.

This error is mostly due to certificate that browser doesn't trust. Check if your root certificate is in the trust store.
Also check if the following KB helps to solve this issue:

I tried this before but all it does it gives me bunch or something that is between Japanese and Chinese characters but no file to download the certificate any other way to install that certificate
Hi,
maybe the following will do the trick.
Instead of deploying the OVF via the vCenter directly connect to one of your ESXi Nodes and rerun the deployment from here.
I was able to deploy it ; so something done wrong here.
Used below versions:
vCenter Server 7.0 Update 3k 7.0.3.01300 2023-02-23 21290409 ( MY VC in lab)
VMware-vSphere_Replication-8.7.0-21999688

Hi,
you have to add an exeption for the domainsuffix of your hosts in /etc/sysconfig/proxy.
Your hosts fqdn myesx01.mycompany.dom you should add .*.mycompany.dom
NO_PROXY="localhost, 127.0.0.1, myesx01.mycompany.cdom"
or
NO_PROXY="localhost, 127.0.0.1, .*.mycompany.cdom"

when i logged in with DNS name of vcenter it didnt work when I log in as IP address then everything was working fine
I guess DNS was not set properly
Check if your FQDN is resolving through your DNS. Also check if Certifcate contains FQDN as Certificate Subject Alternative Name.
