Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes I can ping the VASA appliance from the VSC server, and the VSC server does have an FQDN that is resolvable by the VASA appliance.
I can't see any role in vCenter called "VASA Administrator", there is "VSC Administrator" and I've tried with this role applied by experience the same issue.
I've unregistered and re-registered using the VC's FQDN instead of the IP address, same issue.
I've seen the following errors in vvolvp.log:

Some binary characters in there that you'd typically not see in a stack trace
And in error.log:

Any more clues?

Hi,
Generally this error is caused by the user you are logged in as in vCenter does not have the VASA administrator role assigned to them under the VSC role group.
Are you able to ping VASA appliance from VSC server?
Get the VSC server into DNS that the VP can resolve, it may help you fix this.
Hope it helps!
