As part of the troubleshooting, you can restart all VMware Cloud Director Availability services in a combined appliance from the System Monitoring page. To restart the services that are in dedicated appliances, log in to the management interface of each appliance.

Depending on the VMware Cloud Director Availability appliance deployment type, you restart the services in a specific order. After restarting each service, wait a couple of minutes for the service to become operational and display its service management interface again.
