VCEM-70-000010 - ESX Agent Manager must not be configured with unsupported realms.

Information

ESX Agent Manager performs authentication at the application level and not through Tomcat. To eliminate unnecessary features and ensure ESX Agent Manager remains in its shipping state, the lack of a 'UserDatabaseRealm' configuration must be confirmed.

Solution

Navigate to and open:

/usr/lib/vmware-eam/web/conf/server.xml

Remove the <Realm> node returned in the check.

Restart the service with the following command:

# vmon-cli --restart eam
