    Hello, from yesterday i am trying to install vCSA 6.7 on a 6.7 ESXi host but at the stage 2 i am getting error which is written in title.

    Here is the configuration part.

    Stage 1:

    Deployment type : embedded

    Target esxi host :  192.168.1.101

    Port 443 default

    Username and password

    Then setup appliance VM

    Then deployment size Tiny

    Enable thin disk mode

    Then network settings

    vCSA ip 192.168.1.111/24

    Gateway 192.168.1.1 (ip of the window server from which i am installing this.)

    DNS server 192.168.1.1 (although DNS server is not configured in my n/w)

    Stage 2:

    1 Configure time synchronisation mode

    2 SSO domain name : vsphere.local

    3 SSO password and site name

    Then finish, here every time i am getting this error after 52% installation.

    Please suggest for resolution.

    You cannot deploy vCSA correctly if you don't have internal (not public) DNS setup and configured, even in a lab environment. You also must pre-create the forward and reverse DNS records or else installation will fail.
