解决vCenter Inventory Service fails to start in vCenter Server Appliance

grep -i error /var/log/vmware/vpx/inventoryservice/ds.log

发现[2012-10-19 13:56:41,077 WrapperListener_start_runner FATAL com.vmware.vim.dataservices.WrapperListenerImpl] Error starting service: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'instanceUUID' defined in class path resource [server/config/server-config.xml]: Cannot resolve reference to bean 'store' while setting bean property 'targetObject'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'storeFactory' defined in class path resource [server/config/query-server-config.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is com.xhive.error.XhiveException: INTERNAL_ERROR: Log corrupt: no log records seen, checkpointLSN = 5009727e5)

基本上来说是vCenter Server Inventory Service的数据库坏了,需要重建,然后将数据库重新注册到vcsa

# service vmware-inventoryservice stop
# rm -rf /storage/db/inventoryservice/data
# /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/inventoryservice/scripts/ds-invoke.sh -Dvim.logdir=/var/log/vmware/vpx/inventoryservice com.vmware.vim.dataservices.CreateDb /storage/db/inventoryservice/data changeme default changeme

数据库密码changeme

# service vmware-inventoryservice start

vcsa是5.0:

# /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/inventoryservice/scripts/ds-invoke.sh -Dvim.logdir=/var/log/vmware/vpx/inventoryservice-registration com.vmware.vim.dataservices.provider.util.SetupLocalService -vcurl https://<vcentername or ip>:443/sdk/vimService -providercfg file:/usr/lib/vmware-vpx/inventoryservice/lib/server/config/vc-provider-registration.xml -servicecfg /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/inventoryservice/lib/server/config/dataservice.properties

# service vmware-vpxd restart

vcsa是5.1:

# /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/inventoryservice-registration/vcregtool.sh -Dvim.logdir=/var/log/vmware/vpx/inventoryservice-registration com.vmware.vim.dataservices.vcregtool.RegisterVC -action register -lookupserviceurl https://vcentername:7444/lookupservice/sdk -isurl https://vcentername:10443 -vcurl https://vcentername/sdk/vimService -vccert /etc/vmware-vpx/ssl/rui.crt -vcprivkey /etc/vmware-vpx/ssl/rui.key -vcinstancecfg /etc/vmware-vpx/instance.cfg -vcendpointsdir /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/endpoints -vcextensionsdir /usr/lib/vmware-vpx/extensions

# service vmware-vpxd restart

手工搞定
