Can someone possibly identify what's going on between my vSphere vCenter server and ESX4 host server. For some reason, the vcenter server is reporting that it is unable to connect to the ESX host. The alarm is "Host connection and ower state" is in an alert state and in the events log i see a "Host is not responding." In virtual center, if I click on my esx host and click connect, then it re-establishes connectivity and everything looks fine for a min or two until it loses connectivity again. This process repeats itself when I try to reconnect to my ESX host via vCenter server.
I am able to connect to the ESX host directly and i don't get dropped.
Running VMware ESX 4.0.0, 175625 and vCenter Server 4.0.0, 162856
Thanks everyone.
