#VMWARE EVENT ID 1000 UPDATE#

Once I completed this and restarted the server, the services began to start properly. I’m unsure as to why but I decided to try and change the service from Automatic: I went ahead to reboot the server after I modified the registry and added the dependencies only to find that the problem still continued to happen. After having experienced something similar before with another client, I decided to simply set the VirtualCenter service to depend on the MSSQLServer service and since the VirtualCenter Management Webservices service depends on the VirtualCenter service, it will wait till until it has started before starting itself.

Through reviewing the logs, it’s obvious that the database isn’t ready when the services are trying to start and therefore fails to do so. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly specified database. The VMware VirtualCenter Server service terminated with service-specific error The system cannot find the file specified. The service has returned a service-specific error code. The VMware VirtualCenter Management Webservices service depends on the VMware VirtualCenter Server service which failed to start because of the following error: The message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table The following information was included with the event:įailed to intialize VMware VirtualCenter. If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
#VMWARE EVENT ID 1000 INSTALL#
You can install or repair the component on the local computer. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. The description for Event ID 1000 from source VMware VirtualCenter Server cannot be found. I went ahead to review the logs and found the following: Since we’ve moved to this configuration, we noticed that the VirtualCenter and VirtualCenter Management Webservices services would never start upon a reboot: After having all the issues with distributed network switches and Nexus 1000v switches and vCenter / Virtual Center’s database on a SQL instance that’s on a different server, I decided to recommend to the client that we proceed with installing SQL onto the vCenter server’s operating system and use that to host the database.
