Hey Guys,
This is my first time configuring VMware vcenter appliance. I have a question, have any of you seen the attached error? I get it when I try to configure Active directory settings. I saw one forum that states it happens when dns is not configured properly. I create host and ptr record for the virtual appliance and still no luck getting it to work. I've deployed this on my home lab which is on VMware workstation 12.5. I also tried it from VMware esx server and still getting the same error. I attached the error.
Please try the below shown format for domain and user:
Domain = yourdomain.com
User = administrator@yourdomain.com
André
Domain Name = yourdomain.com
Account = use any service account / Administrator account (Domain/User ID or username@domain.com)
Hi, I've tried what you suggested and it didn't work. do you have any other suggestions?

Hi ,
could you please confirm that AD & DNS is on workstation or it is an external and your esxi and vcenter only in work station .
hi, what do you mean? i have AD and DNS setup. what do you want me to check?
Hi ,
Your AD and DNS server is on work station (VM ) or it is external one and you are trying to configure VCSA on work station .
Which version of VCSA you are trying ?
ESXi version ?
Hi, We need to define the DNS IP first then five the domain name not the server name as host name.
