Error with vCenter data source creation

yarmas — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:20:44 GMT

Anyone seen this problem before?

I installed WFA 1.1.1 and added DFM as a data source no problem.

However, when adding in a vCenter server, I get the following error when acquiring data&colon;

Duplicate entry '404' for key 'PRIMARY'

I saw a posting about a similar error and the response was that it could be ignored. However, I do not seem to get any of the schema populated with vCenter data so ignoring this error is not going to do much for me. For instance, if I go to Finders and try to "test" the "find VC_Datastore by Free Space and Type" I get nothing back and I know there are datastores with free space in my vCenter.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Hi Tom,

Currently WFA 1.1.1 supports vCenter 4. Please have a look at this thread https://communities.netapp.com/docs/DOC-15284. Follow ‘Appendix E Configuring WFA to VCENTER Connection’. Let me know if you still hit this issue.

Thanks

Hi Tom,

Just to confirm - Are you working with vCenter 4 or vCenter 5? WFA 1.1.1 currently supports only vCenter 4.

Regardless - We would like to try and assist (Even if this is a vCenter 5, all the more so if that's an issue with vCenter 4).

One of my team will contact you for collecting ASUP for analyzing this further.

Thanks!
