Use the following guidelines and suggested steps to help resolve issues that occur when using the Service Console to set up UCP Advisor.

Condition:
Entering incorrect BMC, ESXi, vCenter cluster, or vSAN cluster configuration values when setting up UCP Advisor using the Service Console, or refreshing the Service Console browser window during setup, causes the setup to hang, and not complete.
What it Means:
The UCP Advisor setup does not complete.
Corrective Action
  1. Close your current browser session.
