Issue:
The VMware ESXi host reports that the configured guest OS for the PowerChute virtual machine does not match the currently running OS.
Product:
PowerChute Network Shutdown versions 4.4.x and 5.x
Environment:
VMware ESXi version 7 and above
Cause:
VMware ESXi host interpretation of the VMs OS.
Solution:
This warning is like an issue reported in VMware knowledge base document 67671. vCenter Server Appliance displays a warning message on ESXi Host Client (67671) (vmware.com ), but it can be ignored as it does not affect the operation of the PowerChute VM.
Note: When the same PowerChute VM is viewed through VMware vCenter Server, the OS is reported as AlmaLinux 64bit Linux.
