Hello,

I installed a new standalone vCenter 8 on a new host and when it progressed to stage 2, it errored out with an error about DNS. I think this was because I forgot to add the DNS record. I have that added now, but I can't get into the appliance since it didn't finish stage 2. Should I just shutdown the VM and delete it and start over? Is that the best way or is there another way to have it resume stage 2 of the configuration? Thanks,

Yes, after verifying the DNS resolution (forward AND reverse DNS) simply start over with the deployment.
