VMware: EVC – Method not found: ‘Vmomi.HostSystemArray EVCState.get_BadSoftwareHostsBlockingEVC()’
Today I got an error when selecting the “VMware EVC” option in the Cluster Settings at my vCenter 4.0 host with multiple HP Blades with same CPU. Error message:
Method not found: ‘Vmomi.HostSystemArray EVCState.get_BadSoftwareHostsBlockingEVC()’
Solution:
This issue occurs when a system installed with vSphere 4.1 and you use vSphere 4.0 Client on that system to access vCenter Server 4.0.
To workaround this issue, install a vSphere 4.0 Client on a system on which you have not installed vSphere4.1 Client earlier and then update the EVC cluster using the vSphere 4.0 Client.

In my opinion, lack of quality control.

Additionally, “Storage Views” tab does not appear and search is not working.
