-For issues encountered with Arc resource bridge, collect logs for further investigation using the Azure CLI [`az arcappliance logs`](/cli/azure/arcappliance/logs) command. This command needs to be run from the same management machine that was used to run commands to deploy the Arc resource bridge. If you're using a different machine to collect logs, you need to run the `az arcappliance get-credentials` command first before collecting logs.

+### Arc resource bridge status is disconnected

+When running the initial Arc-enabled VMware onboarding script, you were prompted to provide a vSphere account. This account is stored locally within the Arc resource bridge as an encrypted Kubernetes secret. It is used to allow the Arc resource bridge to interact with vCenter. If your Arc resource bridge status is disconnected, this may be due to the vSphere account stored locally within the resource bridge being expired.
