Vmware #vCenter emergency mode

You might face that, during vCenter reboot phase might appear below screenshot.

To fix problem you should:

  1. Take vCenter snapshot
  2. Press E immediately upon boot until Grub boot startup appear
  3. Add systemd.unit=emergency.target (that tells the OS to boot into emergency mode)

F10 to continue boot

 Utilize these commands to find mounted devices, you need to fix only sda devices with ext4 file system

About all of them you need to launch these commands

e2fsck -y /dev/sda1

Finally, you need to reboot
