Many of our readers reported no healthy upstream error when accessing VCenter or VMware. This means no additional data is sent to the software’s source, which usually occurs due to a misconfigured DNS configuration. In this guide, we will discuss ways to fix this.

How can I fix the No Healthy Upstream error on VCenter/VMware?

1. Access the VCenter Server Management Portal on Port 5480

It will take a few minutes for the vSphere Client Web Server to initialize and all the services to start, so take a break for 5-10 minutes, then try accessing the vCenter Server Appliance Management Interface.

2. Configure vCenter Settings

3. Check if there are expired certificates

4. Reboot the vCenter

You will be logged out of the system, and the virtual machine will shut down or reboot in 10 to 15 minutes.

5. Update VMware

Another reason for the No Healthy Upstream error could be the current version of VMware. You should update it to the latest version and see if that resolves the problem.
