Cisco Nexus v1000 not connecting to VMWare vCenter

[Kanat Nurzhanov]

I am trying to deploy Nexus 1000v, but there is a problem - no connection with vCenter. Pings are ok, all ip addresses and port numbers are valid. Console displays following error:

switch(config)#svs connection vc

remote ip address 10.10.10.200 port 5480

protocol vmware-vim

vmware dvs datacenter-name CORE

connect

ERROR: [VMWARE-VIM] Operation could not be completed due to connection failure. End of file or no input: Operation interrupted or timed out after 160s send or 160s receive delay

Thank you.

You should use port 80 instead of 5480 in your svs connection string.  Port 5480 is the default port for the management of the vCSA.
