Hi,
Verify you have the settings in place as per pg 93 of
https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:dqkat2vIDhMJ:support.citrix.com/servlet/KbServlet/download/31038-102-691914/CloudPlatform3.0.3_3.0.5InstallGuide.pdf+&hl=en&gl=uk&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEEShlEUjxysrlM61iGBM2evwFYhCDGynCHPmeI1HZ23DGYsTGI0tBjG3-EYMetqZ4tDWCHRBenSX6XGVOi6gLyJTFYQMmTg21hyEDJ4pdOc5iqDirZGGoCGuM5_vrbjqydg9NBn-b&sig=AHIEtbRBLS24xs16M3egVTUbFewOsv_m7w

"Make sure the following values are set:

VLAN ID set to the desired ID
vMotion enabled.
Management traffic enabled.
If the ESXi hosts have multiple VMKernel ports, and ESXi is not using the default value "Management Network" as the management network name, you must follow these guidelines to configure the management network port group so that CloudPlatform can find it:

Use one label for the management network port across all ESXi hosts.

In the CloudPlatform UI, go to Configuration – Global Settings and set vmware.management.portgroup to the
management network label from the ESXi hosts."

Hi John,

Thanks for that. I am using the Nexus so I went through and made the changes you talk about.

I now get the following error when trying to re-add the cluster:

2012-12-17 15:13:05,247 ERROR [vmware.mo.HypervisorHostHelper] (catalina-exec-14:null) Unable to find Ethernet port profile privateEthernetPortProfile

This error goes away if I set the use Nexus to true. I can't find a setting for Ethernetport profiles in the global settings. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Paul

Ok, think I am one step futher now.

Since adding a new PortProfile called privateEthernetPortProfile I was able to add the cluster. Now when I try and add the host, I get the following error:
