Description

Delivery Controller hosting connection Error Id: XDDS:D7833C72

Exception: Citrix.Console.Models.Exceptions.HypervisorNotContactableException The host server cannot be contacted. Check that the connection has a valid host address and that the host server is powered on and working properly. 
DesktopStudio_ErrorId: HypervisorNotContactable Exception: PluginUtilities.Exceptions.HostingInfrastructureCommunicationsFailureException: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel

Resolution

  1. Install the latest vCenter certificate on all the DDCs
  2. Update the SSL thumbprint for the hosting connection
  3. Restart the host service on the DDCs one by one.
Steps to update the SSL Thumbprint,
INSERT into [DBName].[HostingUnitServiceSchema].[HypervisorConnectionSSLThumbprint] (hypervisorconnectionUid, SSLThumbprint) Values ('EnterhypConnectionUidHere', 'EnterSSlthumprintFromCertHere') 

Note: Restarting the Host service might trigger a restart of all the pending power actions of the VDA. Consider performing this event outside the business hours to avoid any potential impact.

Problem Cause

A mismatch of the SSL Thumbprint/Expired hosting connection certificate could cause such challenges
