Environment Details

Standard VMware internal MaaS deployment.

Environmental variables set as:

$sddcManagerFqdn = "sddc-manager.vrack.vsphere.local"
$sddcManagerUser = "administrator@vsphere.local"
$sddcManagerPass = "VMware123!"
$workloadDomain = "sddcId-1001"
$cluster = "SDDC-Cluster1"
$certificateDirectory = "/Users/mgustafsson/CRT"
$certificateFileExt = ".crt"

Description

Followed https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-Foundation/5.0/vcf-operations/GUID-F431F343-B55C-495A-BE92-32483AC825D7.html#GUID-748DCB72-8610-44CA-B288-4FF598C9427D__GUID-BBB73B3E-1391-4A5E-A5B6-D79CD600BCB3 for replacing ESXi certificates in the management domain. All commands up until Install-VCFCertificate run without issues.

Install-VCFCertificate -esxi -server $sddcManagerFqdn -user $sddcManagerUser -pass $sddcManagerPass -domain $workloadDomain -cluster $cluster -certificateDirectory $certificateDirectory -certificateFileExt $certificateFileExt runs, for 1min 55 seconds, then but all 4 hosts in the management cluster are skipped. No certificates are uploaded and no error is displayed.

Tried running without variables and only for a single host, no difference. Command runs for 43 seconds then the prompt is skipped.

Error or Debug Output

No error output.

Expected Behavior

Hosts to enter maintenance mode with full data evacuation, certificate replaced and host rebooted in a rolling fashion.

Actual Behavior

No certificates are replaced on the hosts.

Steps to Reproduce

Install Powershell on macOS, install the modules, set the variables and run the Install-VCFCertificate commandlet.

Correct, but I raised a separate issue for that. https://github.com/vmware/powershell-module-for-vmware-cloud-foundation-certificate-management/issues/92
