The last days I had an issue with the vapi endpoint service.<\/p>\n
This was caused when I recreated the VMCA Solution Certificates with the Certificate Manager. BTW: VMware Support advised me to do so :\/<\/p>\n
The complete Message was:<\/p>\n
\"Failed to connect to d30d9c10-e830-4a2e-b2dd-12de77fc11a3\\com.vmware.cis.cls.vapi vAPI provider.\"<\/pre>\n
Look what other services are affected by this issue and how to fix it.<\/p>\n
