This is a known issue affecting VMware vCenter Single Sign-On 5.5.With vCenter Single Sign-On 5.5.0b, cleanup operation have been integrated into the installer. You can download the latest release from the VMware Download Center.These cleanup operations will execute in the follow scenarios when using vCenter Single Sign-On 5.5.0b: If an SSO node fails to install and rolls back. A subsequent install will automatically run the cleanup utility and purge all replication data of the node name prior to performing the install.If an SSO node is intentionally uninstalled, during the re-installation of SSO on the same system, the installer will automatically run the cleanup utility and purge all replication data of the node name prior to performing the install These cleanup operations will not execute in the follow scenarios when using vCenter Single Sign-On 5.5.0b: If the SSO node was intentionally uninstalled with the intentions to never have vCenter Single Sign-On re-installed. This will leave old node data in the replication data between the other SSO nodes.If the SSO node fails to install and the hostname is changed. After the name change, the re-installation of vCenter Single Sign-On will be detected as a new node instance which will leave old node data in the replication data between the other SSO nodes. To resolve this issue, open a support request with VMware for guidance on cleaning up the stale vCenter Single Sign-On data. For guidance on opening a Support Request, see Filing a Support Request in Customer Connect (2006985). To work around this issue, change the hostname of the vCenter Single Sign-On Server: Terminate the vCenter Single Sign-On installation: Open Task Manager.Click on the Processes tab.Locate the following processes: vdcpromo.exe Right-click on the process and click End Process. Note: This will cause the vCenter Single Sign-On installer to perform a roll-back operation. Rename the hostname of the SSO server that requires re-installation. For more information on renaming an existing Windows Server, see the Microsoft TechNet article Rename the Computer.Change the DNS records to reflect the new hostname of the SSO server. For more information on updating the lookup zones in a Microsoft Active Directory domain, see the Microsoft TechNet article Managing DNS Records.Reinstall SSO on the failed node once the hostname and DNS information have been updated. Note: When creating a new site for a Multisite deployment, use a new Multisite name for this instance. Note: The preceding links were correct as of September 19, 2013.
