How have you configured LDAP in vCenter? Is the vCenter joined to the domain? I had the similar issue when using the first option when configuring LDAP. Cant remember what it was called (can check when I connect again). Can you try changing the LDAP configuration to use "AD as an LDAP source" or similar. Also, in the current configuration, can you check if you are able to login using UPN format.

Hi manachi,
Welcome to Fusion Community.
Per release note, VMware Fusion provides the full support for Windows 10 as virtual machine started from Fusion 8.0. Would you please try it with Fusion 8?

Hi Sikork ,
Welcome to Fusion forum.
Which OVF file did you try to import? Where did you get the ovf file?
Re: Persona Management, default programs association
This may be caused of the replication was not done properly.
Grab the persona logs with "CSyncEngine" keyword to see if the replication worked properly.
Hello, VMware Community. I need your help.
I have just recently dipped my toe into the VM pool. I find it quite fascinating and fun to use. Here's where my question. Could VMware Workstation be used for personal use? I have it downloaded on my Windows PC and I enjoy it. There's a lot I need to learn about VMware Workstation. This is where I am going to start. Any help that is given is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Re: Is IPv6 broken in vSphere 6.5?
I had the same issue. I logged a call with VMware and it seems currently there is a mis-configuration of the sysctl.conf file that disables ipv6 on boot.
Here is the orig /etc/sysctl.conf file (note the nice spelling mistake). The second line is where it disables ipv6 on boot. You just need to remove that line and it is all sorted.
#Disbaling SLAAC/Link Local addresses net.ipv6.conf.eth0.disable_ipv6=1 kernel.core_uses_pid = 0 kernel.core_pattern = /var/core/core.%e.%p net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter=2 net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter=2
Apparently a fix is on its way but it is definitely in builds up to 6.5.0.5300 Build Number 5178943

Re: Error: Unsupported plugin dependency type css on vCenter version 6.0.0.2559267
> in vcenter version 6.0.0.2559267
Can you provide the version number for Web Client in the About vSphere Client dialog box?
It looks like you're talking about 6.0 GA from 2015.
HTML views have been supported since Web Client 5.5.1 using the "HTML bridge". Your error "Unsupported plugin dependency type css" seems to be related to a <dependency type="css" ...> in plugin.xml: do you have one and what happens if you try the 6.0 Client after removing it?
Re: Initialization/Startup method for plugin custom java service
The UserSession information is tied to each logged in user so there is no other information available during static initialization.
If you need to initialize something through the plugin that requires a vCenter session your only choice is to do it when the first user invokes the plugin.
How to check temporarily CBT file size, and Is ctkEnabled = "disable" option no problem???
Hi, everyone!!
Storage vMotion(svMotion) is using CBT(Changed Block Tracking).
So, When some files are modified, Changing data file is temporarily saved in source datastore.
In my case, one VMDK 1.5TB of MSSQL VM is running in 2TB LUN. In the VMDK, ".NDB files are 400GB and 600GB
Q1,
How can I check the temporary file size of CBT during svMotion ???
I worry that storage size over becuase of increasing file during inserting query to the *.NDB.
Q2,
If "scsix:x.ctkEnabled = "disable"" option in *.vmx is configured, Is svMotion is no problem?
Only the 1.5TB VMDK file is configured.
( I know *.ctk files are made by backup solution. However, Any backup soution is not installed like VDP. it's amazing.)
I alrady refer the below documents. But, I do not resolve my questions.

Service 'VMware CAF Management Agent Service' fails to start
I was having an issue with MACOS Sierra with VMWARE tools 7.1.3 and I know it is unsupported so I did the trial to the newest fusion. However, the machine is still booting the guest OS (Windows 10 Pro) into a black screen. We see the Windows log and then a black screen. I can get into safe mode no problem. I disabled the VMware video drivers and I can now get into windows guest os. However, I went to install the VMware tools hoping this will solve the issue, and I can't complete the install. I am getting Service 'VMware CAF Management Agent Service' (VMwareCAFManagementAgentHost) failed to start. Error 1053, failed to start in a timely manner. I have tried switching the user the service uses to startup the service to no availability. I can't get the tools installed without it, which will most likely fix my issue.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks, Bob
Re: I have a challenge for the vSAN experts. - Unassociated objects
Hi Bob
I think the error is the group uuid (ec706b58-98e7-a27e-2079-00249b1aced0) for the DC02.vmdk object.
Re: VMware tools not downloading
You might not have realized that most people in this community are volunteers and are simply trying to help. In another word, this community is not VMware's official support site. So, saying "find that way and tell me" is really inappropriate. Having said this, I'd like to return the conversation or discussions to technical subjects and keep it that way.
Re: VMware tools not downloading
Ohh I am so sorry I didn't know about that. So can we come back in our work? And sorry please.
Re: Can't get vmware to run, msg says can't open
It might be a good idea to get in touch with our support team, they are experts in getting issues like these sorted out for you.
Just drop them an email at desktop-services@vmware.com and we'll do what we can.
Re: esxi 5.0 degraded datastore
Welcome to the Community,
in this case "Degraded" is not really correct. Volumes on this type of RAID controller (and other controllers too) are detected as external storage. That's likely the reason why the hypervisor's logic shows each LUN with less than 2 paths as "degraded", although it actually is not.
