Introduction:
From my opinion, setting up a lab and trying to break and fix the deployment is the best way to learn about the product before implementing a production environment. Beside the amazing HOL labs, sometimes you feel more confident if you setup your own lab from scratch going through all the scenarios that may arise.
Scenario:
So, I was setting up a vSphere 6.5 environment for an NSX lab while I was preparing for my VCIX-NV certificate. I installed multiple ESXi 6.5 hosts and a vCenter VCSA 6.5 Update”e” without replacing any self-signed certificate.
Trying to deploy the NSX Manager OVA failed and the task hanged at 0% and must be cancelled.
Also trying to upload any file to datastore failed with the below error:
“The operation failed for an undetermined reason. Typically this problem occurs due to certificates that the browser does not trust. If you are using self-signed or custom certificates, open the URL in a new browser tab and accept the certificate, then retry the operation.”
Solution:
Now you should be able to upload file to your datastore and deploy OVA (in my case NSX Manager).
Hope my post help you in case you encounter this issue.
