After updating TLS you will need to restart these services.

-

 If you are updating the TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol on a Windows server, there are several services that you may need to restart in order for the changes to take effect. These services include:


Windows Update service: This service is responsible for checking for and installing updates on the server. Restarting this service ensures that any updates related to TLS are applied.


IIS (Internet Information Services): If you have web applications running on the server that use SSL/TLS, you may need to restart IIS after updating TLS to ensure that the new protocol is used by the web server.


Remote Desktop Services: If you use Remote Desktop to connect to the server, you may need to restart the Remote Desktop Services to ensure that the new TLS protocol is used for secure communication.


Active Directory Certificate Services: If your server is running as a certificate authority or if you use certificates issued by a CA on the server, you may need to restart the Active Directory Certificate Services to ensure that the new TLS protocol is used when issuing or renewing certificates.


It's important to note that the exact services that need to be restarted may vary depending on the specific updates you are applying and the configuration of your server. It's always a good idea to review the documentation provided with the updates and consult with your IT department or a qualified professional to ensure that the necessary services are restarted properly.

PowerShell below 

# Restart Windows Update service, IIS (Internet Information Services), Remote Desktop Services, and Active Directory Certificate Services:
# Restart Windows Update service
Restart-Service -Name wuauserv

# Restart IIS (Internet Information Services)
Restart-Service -Name w3svc

# Restart Remote Desktop Services
Restart-Service -Name TermService

# Restart Active Directory Certificate Services
Restart-Service -Name CertSvc

Clearing DNS cache on vCenter Server Appliance

  Clearing DNS cache on vCenter Server Appliance 6.5/6.7 - Just Virtualise It (kanecharles.com) I came across a situation recently where I was building some nested ESXi hosts and had configured the incorrect IP address for their DNS record, only to realize this after attempting to add the host into Center:  By attempting to add the host, vCenter will query your DNS servers for the IP address associated with the FQDN you have supplied (assuming you did this method, not via IP address). If you have set the wrong IP on your DNS server for the above FQDN record, you have 2 options: Wait a short while for vCenter to clear the cache entry for this FQDN, thus allowing you to add the host with the correct IP from the DNS record Clear the DNS cache on your vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) vCSA 6.5 upwards runs on Photon OS with dnsmasq acting as a local caching nameserver (thank you to Brandon for the comment to clarify). Enough rambling, so how do we do it? If you’re anything like me, you will
