Hello, this is the first forum post i have ever made in my life, but i really cant figure this one on my own. I would really appreciate the help, if someone knows how to!
I recently moved my 6.7 ESXi hosts and 6.7 vCenter server to a distributed switch. Everything seemed to go fine, I can still access my 3 hosts form web and i can ping everything (including VCSA). However, i can't access VCSA from web anymore, with Chrome i just get a message saying 10.69.51.100 refused to connect. Can't access it with any other browser either. I've tried rebooting my vCenter multiple times, didn't help at all. I also tried checking if all the services are up and running. However, then i get these strange errors i couldn't find pretty much any info about online:

Running:
lwsmd vmafdd vmcad vmdird vmdnsd vmware-pod vmware-sts-idmd vmware-stsd vmware-vmon
Could these be a part of the problem? If i try to start all the services, it only starts the ones already running again, doesen't even try to start those others with the invalid name.

I haven't made any actual changes to vCenter configuration, other than moving it to a dswitch. Everything worked just fine before. Oh, and i'm just on a home lab, trying to work on my practical part of my thesis work. Does anyone know what's happening here? I'm happy to provide you with more information if needed/possible.
