When adding a VA to vRanger, the following error is observed:
"Failed to validate "VA Name" as a valid virtual appliance. Please verify the root password or select another virtual appliance."
A possible cause is the wrong BROADCAST IP may be used.
Set the correct BROADCAST IP in the following file
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0/ipv4
ONBOOT=yes
SERVICE=ipv4-static
IP=<static IP of VA>
GATEWAY=<IP of gateway>
PREFIX=<this is the subnet mask - your values may differ>
BROADCAST=<your broadcast IP- the highest IP in the VA’s subnet.>
