Well I am new at this, and taking a class on vcenter server. The exact error is " A general system error occurred: Timed waiting for vpxa to start" Now I have looked at the vpxa log and it shows the Esxi host has denied this vcenter virtual machine from managing it. As I said I have the Esxi host running in Vmware Player and a vsphere client connecting to this host with a Windows 2008 r2 datacenter VM with Vcenter running on it. Both have IP addresses and can ping each other. I am using root and the password when using the "Add Host" on the vcenter server to connect. What else can I try? yes the Vcenter vm is inside of the ESXI host. I am trying to do all of this on my laptop so I can take it from home to work.
