CWP-3973: Carbon Black Cloud console displays unreachable appliance as eligible
On the Carbon Black Cloud console, from the Inventory > Workloads > Not Enabled tab, you can filter VMs based on the Eligibility status. Some eligible VMs are listed with a note 'Not eligible. Unreachable appliance' if the on-premise appliance is unable to communicate with the Carbon Black Cloud. Even though the appliance is unreachable, the Carbon Black Cloud console displays the unreachable appliance under the Eligible filter.

Workaround: Carbon Black Cloud and the Carbon Black Cloud Workload appliance must be always in sync on the appliance version. For example, to upgrade successfully the appliance from versio 1.0.2 to version 1.1.2, make sure the version of the appliance is 1.0.2 in the cloud as well.
-

However, you can view the correct 4.0.1 version of NSX in the About VMware NSX pop-up, part of the NSX console UI.
Workaround: None.
