  • 1.  Host error - attempting to install an image profile...

    Posted Oct 27, 2020 10:42 AM

    Hello

    My ESXi-hosts are listing several events like this:

    Alarm 'Host error' on <host> triggered by event 104687855 'Issue detected on <host> in <DC>: Attempting to install an image profile bypassing signing and acceptance level verification. This may pose a large securit (2020-10-27T07:26:06.308Z cpu32:3791895)'

    Should I be worried?

    I have not commenced any image installation...

    I have updated my vCenter close to the timestamp of above alarm - can this be the cause?

    Which version have you updated vCenter?

    usually this is not an issue, just it says vCenter saying it is connecting to esxi host and installing it's agent

    I see this every time one of our hosts are (re)booted. 

    Does vCenter attempt to update the agent every time a host comes on line then?
