    Please contact VMware Support as this requires some time to fix. 

    If there are underlying problems to vmdird it will again fall back to null or read-only. Make sure to have backup's and powered off snapshots of both VCSA's before support makes any changes

    This doesn't make much sense to me.  There's no fix or script?  Do you have to build a lab?

    There is (fixing PSC/VMDIR replication inconsistencies using shell script but that is internal which could not publish here 

    you required open case with support

    Suppose this is an involved process.  For giggles, a person is an isolated network with no internet.  Theoretically, what's the strategy to address this issue in a gapped environment?

    Hello 

    Can you check the replication status on both the VC once .
    Did we reverted snapshot on any one VC ?
    Did you try adding setting vmdir state to normal and did it revert back to read only ?

     

    Regards
