Resolution
To check the version of VMware tools currently in use on an Authentication Manager 8.2 and higher server performs the following tasks:
- If it is not enabled, enable SSH access via the Operations Console (Administration > Operating System Access > Enable SSH access on eth0 > Save). Alternatively, logon to the local console of the virtual appliance with the rsaadmin account.
Note that during Quick Setup another user name may have been selected. Use that user name to login.
- Open an SSH session and do the following:
login as: rsaadmin
Using keyboard-interactive authentication.
