VMware vSphere Client cannot open the virtual machine console, but see the virtual machine, what circumstance? How to solve?
Points to open a virtual machine console is prompt unable to connect to the MKS: could not connect to pipe \. \ pipe \ vmware - authdpipe: the system always find the file specified,

The solution:

1, login to the vSphere Web Client PC configuration, to resolve vCenter ServerDNS hostname of the server;

2, configure local resolution, namely in the PC % WINDIR % \ system32 \ drivers \ etc \ hosts file to join vCenter Server host name and IP corresponding relation,

Cause analysis

Able to ping the host, the ICMP protocol, such as firewall is relatively loose, not like TCP protocol must be through the state filtering mechanism,

Although the vsphere client is connected vcenter Server, and VCS network (gateway is the core switches) is normal, the VCS and communication between the host is also normal, but from this phenomenon shows that vsphere client when using open the console operation still need direct ESX host (not virtual machine) for network communication based on TCP protocol,
