Problem: When deploying a host to a vCenter computer resource, the process fails with the error “Cannot power up host”.
Expected outcome: Virtual machine is created and powered up, starts network boot.
Foreman and Proxy versions: 3.1.2
The problem was also observed with older versions and since I could not find anything I supose it still persists in recent versions. We will upgrade to 3.3 within the next weeks.
Distribution and version: CentOS 7
Other relevant data:
production.log is revealing an SSL_connect error, presumably for that particular request. Everything works when we uncheck the “Start” checkbox in the Virtual machine tab during host creation and later start the VM manually.
