Hi all,
let me explain for my environment first:
- I have free license for VMware vSphere Hypervisor 5 (VMware ESXi, 5.1.0, 1483097)
- APC Smart-UPS RT 6000 XL from the company Schnieder Electric.
Issue:
The PowerChute Network Shutdown for VMware is not shutting down the Virtual machines and the VM server.
Answer from APC Schnieder Electric support:
Find out what license you installed. The error indicates that PCNS cannot communicate because the VMware license does not allow it.
VMware offers many different licenses and not all allow for remote access.
My Question:
Is this true? Are there differences in the free licenses? If so, what should I do?
It would be great if someone could help me!
May I kindly thank you for your co-operation.
Very nice regards
Philippe
