VCS cluster may display "stale admin wait" state if the virtual computer name and the VCS cluster name contains non-English locale characters

Last published : Oct 01, 2026
This issue occurs after configuring application monitoring using the InfoScale High Availability Configuration wizard.(2906207)
While configuring application monitoring using the InfoScale High Availability Configuration wizard, if you specify non-English characters for any of the following, the wizard successfully configures the VCS cluster and completes the application monitoring configuration. However, after the configuration workflow is complete the VCS cluster fails to start and displays the "stale admin wait" state, in the InfoScale High Availability tab and the InfoScale High Availability dashboard.
  • Virtual name, on the Virtual Network Settings panel
  • VCS cluster name, on the Edit Cluster Details panel
Workaround: Edit the virtual name or the VCS cluster ID/name. For more details on modifying the virtual name or the cluster ID/name, refer to the VCS Administrator's Guide.
Alternatively, you may consider to unconfigure the VCS cluster and then reconfigure it again. However, note that unconfiguring the VCS cluster requires you to unconfigure your application monitoring configuration.
