vCenter 5.5U2 Upgrade on VCSA

1 minute read

So I decided to upgrade my vCenter 5.5U1 VCSA to the latest vCenter 5.5U2 release yesterday and it has been a complete disaster at this point. vCenter continually crashes every few minutes now. I was just poking through logs and found where the service is crashing. I am including the context of the log below.
