  • 1.  Enable VCSA 7 MOB

    Posted Apr 28, 2021 11:39 AM

    So I have some old plugins failing in vCenter vcsa 7 after upgrading from 6.7 - I need to get into the MOB to remove them but can't figure out how to enable it. I have this page https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2108405 but it only talks about enabling it for the ESXi host. Anyone know how to enable the MOB in VCSA 7?

    As you correctly noticed the KB you've mentioned is just for enabling it on the ESXi host. On vCenter the MOB is enabled by default and can directly be accessed via https://VCSA_IP/mob/. Browse to the URL and logon using your credentials.

    I noticed the MOB page is no longer working on my 7.0u1 prod or lab instances.  It used to work in v6.7.  The error page says:  "HTTP Error 401: This page isn't working right now"

    I feel dumb… I was using the latest Edge browser or Firefox.  Neither worked.  I opened the MOB in Chrome without issue.  Seems to be a browser specific issue.
