vSphere Web client 6.0 missing license UI

Found that on our recently upgrade vCSA 6.0U1 the license UI was missing.

Found a detailed KB article from VMware on this but they reference this happens when you have a proxy in place, which we don't so seems this problem can potentially affect more environments.

Solution for vCSA:

Stop the vSphere Web Client service by running:
service vsphere-client stop

Remove the contents of the vSphere Web Client work directory by running:
rm -rf /usr/lib/vmware-vsphere-client/server/work/*

Remove the contents of the pickup directory by running:
rm /usr/lib/vmware-virgo/server/pickup/*


Back up the following files that are located in /usr/lib/vmware-vsphere-client/plugin-packages/vsphere-client/plugins/:

• telemetry-service-6.0.0.jar
• telemetry-ui-war-6.0.0.war
• phonehome-collector-ui-war-6.0.0.war
• cis-data-service-cmc-6.0.0.jar
  

Remove the following files that are located in /usr/lib/vmware-vsphere-client/plugin-packages/vsphere-client/plugins/:

• telemetry-service-6.0.0.jar
• telemetry-ui-war-6.0.0.war
• phonehome-collector-ui-war-6.0.0.war
• cis-data-service-cmc-6.0.0.jar
  

Start the following vCenter service by running:
service vsphere-client start
