Unable to determine the privilege level of the logged on user

Hello all,

We upgraded our vSphere to 5.1 Update 1A today and integrated it with Active Directory. Now we cannot get the VSC to function. The error we get:

Unable to determine the privilege level of the logged on user. See the log for more details.

Which log is it referencing?

It is referring to VSC logs. You can export VSC logs using C# vSphere client. Click on Administration -> NetApp -> Export Virtual Storage Console Support Logs.
