Background

I'm on a new VMWare install consisting of:

  • 1 vCenter Server (containing inventory service, SSO, vCenter server, and web client server)
  • 2 ESX Servers configured in a HA group

Problem

When a I view the summary for any one of my servers, I receive a notice: ""

This is expected in our scenario and we're okay with it.

Attempted Solutions

As I understand from this article and this discussion, the proper way to remove the error message is to ignore it via setting the "das.ignoreRedundantNetWarning" propery to "true".

I took the following steps:

  • Logged into vCenter
  • Right-clicked on my HA cluster and chose "Edit Settings..."
  • Clicked "vSphere HA" section
  • Clicked "Advanced Options..."
  • Added the "das.ignoreRedundantNetWarning" option with a value of "true".

Question

How do I get this error to go away, and are there any reasons why adding this option may not have worked?
