Domain Controller Down (VM)

DO you have an office, a cubicle? Put up a sign that says that there is an outage and you are working on it and ANY interruption will stop you from working on it. So only interrupt if what you need is more important than fixing the servers and are prepared to report such to management.

Are you able to ping the DC's IP or get into it via RDP now that you have rebooted ?
-
-
Assuming ESX01 is the one we have all the trouble accessing, can you connect the vSphere client to ESX02?

I actually can access ESX02. This was not the case before I rebooted.
-
@JaredBusch Actually, totally randomly it's working now. I'm at a loss. I can remote into either of them now.
-
So is the switch rebooted? any change?
-
@Dashrender view above
-
did you reboot the switch?
-
@Dashrender yes
-
I bet your switch locked something out. or it was locked up.
-
@wirestyle22 said in Domain Controller Down (VM):
@Dashrender yes
What does remote into mean? Are you using the vSphere client you downloaded?
Can you ping everything now then?
