If VxRail Manager (VRM) can query node information after running the commands in step 5, then this means that there is no issue on the VRM. PTAgent and Platform services may be unable to deliver node information to the VRM. The VRM fails to display the node information.
To resolve this issue, SSH to failing nodes and run the commands to restart DellPTA and Platform services. The following commands apply to VxRail 7.x through 8.0.214, note that for 14G and above platforms after 7.0.240 there is no DellPTAgent anymore. /etc/init.d/DellPTAgent restart /etc/init.d/DellPTAgent startus/etc/init.d/vxrail-pservice restart /etc/init.d/vxrail-pservice startus For VxRail 8.0.300+, run the following command to restart the Platform service and check the service status. esxcli daemon control restart -s platformsvcesxcli daemon info get -s platformsvc
