               >...To add a serial port to the VM, click the + icon next to the Serial Ports field.

                  You can use serial ports to connect a physical port or a file on the VM.

Please see the following, it applies to both upgrades and new installations:

Management Center Virtual Upgrade from 7.0.x or earlier to 7.2.0/7.2.4/7.2.5

If you upgrade the management center virtual deployed on Nutanix from version 7.0.x or earlier to version 7.2.0/7.2.4 /7.2.5, the web UI will not start and you cannot log in. Perform any of the following workarounds to resolve the issue:

• Attach a virtual serial console port to the management center virtual from the Nutanix controller VM and allow the boot sequence to complete after the upgrade.

• Before upgrading from version 7.0.x or earlier to version 7.2.0/7.2.4/7.2.5, attach a virtual serial console port to the management center virtual from the Nutanix controller VM.

• Initiate a fresh install of the management center virtual version 7.0.0 and attach a virtual serial console port to the management center virtual from the Nutanix controller VM. After 7.0.0 is installed, initiate the upgrade to 7.2.0/7.2.4/7.2.5.

To create and attach a virtual serial port to the management center virtual, perform the following steps:

1. Power off the management center virtual instance.

2. Run the following Acropolis CLI (aCLI) commands in the Nutanix CVM aCLI:

   vm.serial_port_create <management-center-virtual-VM-name> type=kServer index=0

   vm.update <management-center-virtual-VM-name> disable_branding=true

   vm.update <management-center-virtual-VM-name> extra_flags="enable_hyperv_clock=False"

3. Power on the management center virtual instance.
