Problem - License Not Available To Perform The Operation

Anyboy experience this, and know what can be done to address the issue?

vSphere Client 4.1.0 (345043)

vCenter Server 4.1.0 (345043)

ESXi 4.1 (348481)

Prodlem: Trying to enable Storage I/O Control for a datastore that's shared between 10 hosts.  When I click on "Enable" for Storate I/O Control, an error window pops up saying the following:

Configure Storage I/O Control on datastore

License not available to perform the operation

Error Stack:

The vSphere 4 Enterprise Plus license for Host [removed] does not include Storage I/O Control. Upgrade the license.

However, the weird thing is that all of the hosts have Enterprise Plus licenses attached to them.  I am only getting this error for one of the hosts.  I shouldn't be getting this error at all since everything is at Enterprise Plus, yet ... there it is.

Here is a screenshot of the Licensed Features window for the host in question.

I'm having this same problem, it is very annoying. I have changed the license key too to no avail.
