ISSUES I RAN INTO
Activation problem
This is a NTP drift problem – failed calling remote endpoint, response: null
Update time setting through https://fqdn_ip_hcx/9443
Wrong key used during activation you get this error – unable to activate with the details provided
Try to deploy the ova file you get – A fatal error has occurred. Unable to continue.
Start the content library service in vCenter
If you have an issue with paring the site, the sso account might not be working with hcx try to login with the sso account on hcx
Otherwise, could be a certificate issue. Import the vcenter certificates and hcx certificates into each hcx appliance see below screen cap
Here are some troubleshooting commands you can use
Test from source to destination and destination to source
curl -k -v https://172.168.1.128
Test SSH is working to each hcx server
Ping each hcx device from each other
ping -M do -s 1472 10.0.0.56
Trace route each hcx device from each other
traceroute 172.168.1.128
Also check the role mapping to see if it has access see below screenshot
