How do I resolve error code 2000000 caused by VMware
Certificate Authority-VMCA
When you run the vSphere certificate manager and replace the vCenter server or Platform Controller Service (PSC) certificate with a
new CA certificate and key for vCenter 6.0, OMIVV displays error code 2000000 and throws an exception.
Resolution: To resolve the exception, you should update the ssl Anchors for the services. The ssl Anchors can be updated by running the
ls_update_certs.py scripts on PSC. The script takes the old certificate thumbprint as the input argument and the new certificate is
installed. The old certificate is the certificate before the replacement and the new certificate is the certificate after the replacement. For
