Another morning of doing battle with an invincible undead VM...

Couldn't even get the host to shut down. Wound up having to reset the service profile from UCS.

On to the next battle...

And now I'm trying to use gparted.iso to reset the root password on another ESXi 7.x host which disconnected from vCenter overnight and refused to accept *any* of our known-good credentials.

What a day this morning has been.

No dice. Looks like *something* is corrupted on this host. Going to have to reload it... And hope that it rejoins the vSAN cluster without too much of a fight.

@XSGeek Yep, that's the dream.

I love working with imaginary computers but the real computers on which they run can be pretty frustrating at times.
