Recently, I wanted to create a new provider VDC with a vSphere cluster as resource pool in a customer VMware Cloud Director environment. It failed with the error message “[ … ] class com.vmware.vcloud.api.presentation.service BadRequestException”.
While checking the cluster in the resource vCenter Server (version 7.x), the following error was shown in the vSphere Client:
“vSphere DRS functionality was impacted due to unhealthy state vSphere Cluster Services caused by the unavailability of vSphere Cluster Service VMs. vSphere Cluster Service VMs are required to maintain the health of vSphere DRS”
