When the vCenter address is entered by short name or FQDN in the VMware vSphere adapter configuration, you experience these symptoms: Testing the connection of a VMware vSphere adapter shows the error: Unable establish a valid connection to the target system.

This issue occurs due to failed name resolution.
To resolve this issue, add vCenter Server to the vRealize Operations Manager's host file or change the Short name /FQDN to the IP Address in the VMware vSphere adapter's configuration. To add the vCenter Server to the hosts file: Log in to the master node as root through SSH or Console.Open the /etc/hosts file using a text editor.Add a line containing the vCenter Server information. For Example: 192.168.1.50 vcenter vcenter.vmware.com Save and close the file.Repeat steps 1-4 on all nodes in the cluster.
Adding the vCenter's information to the hosts file on each node keeps the vCenter server collecting in case the adapter instance moves to another node. If the adapter instance was already saved, restart the VMware vSphere adapter instance: Log in to the vRealize Operations Manager UI as an administrator user.Navigate to Administration > Solutions.Select the VMware vSphere solution, then select the adapter instance.Click Stop, then click Start. 简体中文：在 vRealize Operations Manager 6.x 中测试 VMware vSphere 适配器实例连接失败vRealize Operations Manager 6.x での VMware vSphere アダプタ インスタンス接続のテストに失敗する
