Cause
An insucient load balancer timeout seing might cause failure. You can correct the problem by increasing
the load balancer timeout seing to 100 seconds or greater and rerunning the task.
Solution
1 Increase your load balancer timeout value to at least 100 seconds. For example, and depending on the
load balancer you are using, edit the load balancer timeout seing in your ssl.conf, httpd.conf or
other Web conguration le.
2 Rerun the installation or upgrade.
Upgrade Fails for Website Component During IaaS Upgrade
The IaaS upgrade fails and you cannot continue the upgrade.
Problem
The installer cannot update the web.config le.

1 Before you begin the upgrade, open the web.config le in an editor from an account with elevated
privileges.
2 Save the le to change the date stamp for modication.
3 Verify that the le modication date for the web.config le is later than the creation date.
4 Run the IaaS upgrade.
Incorrect Tab Names Appear Intermittently
IaaS tabs and other tabs might be labeled incorrectly.
Problem
After upgrading a high availability environment from vCloud Automation Center 6.0.x or 6.1 to
vRealize Automation 6.2, tabs might intermiently appear with incorrect names.
Solution
Restart all the vRealize Automation virtual appliances to restore the correct tab names.

00:00:05, error details: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an
error occurred during the login process. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - The certificate
