vSphere Lifecycle Manager failed to prepare an NSX-T cluster.
Problem
Transport node profile could not be applied to a vSphere Lifecycle Manager cluster, which caused the cluster to go into Failed state.
Cause
As vSphere Lifecycle Manager failed to set and apply NSX as a solution on the cluster, none of the hosts in the cluster were prepared as transport nodes. View the error state on the cluster in NSX Manager UI.
Solution
- On the NSX Manager, go to .
- From the Managed by drop-down menu, select the vCenter Server.
- Identify the failed cluster to view the error state. Click the error link to open a popup window. Click Resolve to initiate transport node profile realization on the cluster.
- Alternatively, run the API command, POST /api/v1/transport-node-collections/<tnc id>?action=retry_profile_realization. This command initiates vLCM to realize NSX-T on the cluster.
