@imih Are you able to contact Nimble Support?

The "same problem" can be a result of a number of different underlying issues, and Nimble Support can help work through and figure out what's wrong.

We started to experience this issue after upgrading one of our hosts to 7.0.3.  VM removed it from their patch repository. We are currently reverting our hosts to 7.0.2.

I hope this helps.

In our case we found a solution with the following parameters:

Nimble HF20H with software version 5.2.1.800-930936-opt.

VCSA version: 7.0.3, build: 18700403 

ESXi version: VMware ESXi, 7.0.3, 18644231

First, we updated all three of our Nimble HF20Hs. Then from the VMware integration section of Nimble web UI we had to remove and register the VASA Provider and the Web Client again because in VCenter page; Configure, Storage Providers settings displayed the previous version of Nimble plugin (5.0.10) and they were offline. Nevertheless, the continous iSCSI connections was working as it should be expected.

I hope this helps.
