ESX/ESXi host displays warning message when test condition is false (2008602)

Symptoms

  • Host displays a warning in the Summary or Alarms tab, even though the test condition is false, that is similar to:
Host hostname currently has no management network redundancy
  • The above error message displays in the Summary tab for the host, even though there are two available uplinks for the vSwitch hosting the Service Console/VMkernel Port Management Network, providing a redundancy.
Note: This also applies to the alarm definitions for any object, e.g. memory/CPU usage.

Resolution

To resolve this issue, use one of these options:
    1. Log in to the host as root.
    2. Run this command:

      service mgmt-vmware restart

    3. For ESXi, enable SSH using this command:

      /sbin/services.sh restart

For more information on enabling SSH on ESXi, see Using Tech Support Mode in ESXi 4.1 and ESXi 5.0.
