Hello All,
Just wanted to share an issue I had and get feedback if anyone has experienced this... new bug?
My vCenter 6.5 server was running on a host which experienced a failure... I manually recovered the failed VM's onto another host, once all VM's were back online the vCenter started to crash as soon as I tried to view the properties of a specific VM (via the Webclient) which was also on that original failed host.
The second the properties loaded in the webgui, vCenter would shutdown with the following error:
"An unrecoverable problem has occurred, stopping the VMware VirtualCenter service. Error: Error[VdbODBCError] (-1) “ODBC error: (23505) – ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint “pk_vpx_vm_virtual_device"
I asked DR google and couldn't really find anything specific to “pk_vpx_vm_virtual_device”... has anyone experienced this one before on other versions?
After some investigation I linked this back to the “Host USB Device” and I managed to solve my problem. As I couldn't find anything relevant to this issue I thought I would do a simple write up about it for anyone is interested / experiences the problem.
Cheers
vMan
