I ended up getting a response from VMWare saying that "we have found a bug that is pertaining to the exact issue at hand".&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Would be very interested to hear of anyone else has experienced this though..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;

      <description>I'm on 3.5 still so can't speak to vSphere, but I don't have the problem with it 'sticking' anymore FWIW.  It still does blip though whenever a host reboots (and sometimes if they're being heavily utilized or backed up).</description>

Hi Dan and Casey,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
I'm experiencing this problem with the VM Heatbeat alarm I have created in vSphere.  I'm also finding that opening the console or editing the settings will return the alarm to green.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Did either of you find a way to get this to return to green after acknowledging the alarm perrhaps??&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;

I have the same setup VC 2.5 / ESX 3.0.2 b 61618 and am having the same issue.  The heartbeat also changes to red when I vmotion to a different host. I did find however that instead of logging in and restarting the tools service, I can click edit settings on the VM and not change anything but click ok and this will set the heartbeat back to green.  &lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Heartbeat Alarm Problems</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/message/872725?tstart=0#872725</link>
      <description>&lt;br /&gt;
Hello,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Does anyone else have problems with heartbeat alarms?  I've configured our VC to generate a heartbeat alarm however it seems that nearly every time I reboot a VM the heartbeat alarm chirps (which is to be expected momentarily) however even after the host has come back up the heartbeat alarm still shows red.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
If I go onto the VM and restart the vmware tools service it then will flip the alarm back to green.  This happens 99.9% of the time when I have to reboot a host and is always resolved by bouncing that service...  What's the point of the heartbeat if it doesn't sync back up when the VM comes back on?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
