VMWare vSphere 5.5 – Showing incorrect information in vSphere Web Client
Hi Guys ,
I got stuck in to Vmware Vcenter below issues after the upgrade to Vmware vcenter 5.5 from 5.0
– inventory Database authentication error
– Database not showing correct values and other vmware vcenter inventory issues.
I used the Below Links to resolve the issue#

Here is the Summary :
The Fix:
1) Stop the “VMWare vCenter Inventory Service”.
2) Delete the “data” folder inside of “Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\Inventory Service”.
3) Open a Command Prompt with elevated privileges. Change your working directory to “Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\Inventory Service\scripts”.
4) Run “createDB.bat”, this will reset and create a Inventory Service database.
5) Run “is-change-sso.bat https://computername.domain.com:7444/lookupservice/sdk “administrator@vSphere.local” “SSO_PASSWORD”. Change the computername.domain.com to your FQDN for your vCenter server, and change the SSO_PASSWORD to your Single Signon Admin password.
6) Start the “VMWare vCenter Inventory Service”. At this point, if you try to log on to the vSphere Web Client, it will error with: “Client is not authenticated to VMware Inventory Service”. We’ve already won half the battle.
7) We now need to register the vCenter Server with the newly reset Inventory Service. In an elevated Command Prompt (that we opened above), changed the working path to: “Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server\isregtool”.
8) Run “register-is.bat https://computername.domain.com:443/sdk https://computername.domain.com:10443 https://computername.domain.com:7444/lookupservice/sdk”. Change computername.domain.com to your FQDN for your vCenter server.
9) Restart the “VMware VirtualCenter Server” service. This will also restart the Management Web services.
