vCenter Server: This host currently has no management network redundancy
Found it! One additional step is necessary -- the servers must be reconfigured for HA to remove the error message.
To do this, for each serer:
- In vSphere Client, click on the server
- Click the Summary tab
- In the "Commands" section, click "Reconfigure for vSphere HA".
After this, the error disappears.
Newbie Note: I wasn't aware of this because initially, after updating any setting within the HA cluster, VMWare showed task, "Reconfigure Cluster", as complete. I mistook this message at first glance to mean that I didn't need to manually reconfigure the host.

Background
I'm on a new VMWare install consisting of:
- 1 vCenter Server (containing inventory service, SSO, vCenter server, and web client server)
- 2 ESX Servers configured in a HA group
Problem
When a I view the summary for any one of my servers, I receive a notice: "This host currently has no management network redundancy".
This is expected in our scenario and we're okay with it.
Attempted Solutions
As I understand from this article and this discussion, the proper way to remove the error message is to ignore it via setting the "das.ignoreRedundantNetWarning" propery to "true".
I took the following steps:
- Logged into vCenter
- Right-clicked on my HA cluster and chose "Edit Settings..."
- Clicked "vSphere HA" section
- Clicked "Advanced Options..."
- Added the "das.ignoreRedundantNetWarning" option with a value of "true".
Question
How do I get this error to go away, and are there any reasons why adding this option may not have worked?
