esxi disconnected from vsphere client when trying to add iscsi storage adapter ..

hi

i have one esxi 5.5 running on vmware workstation 11 .

at the first boot of the esxi everything goes smooth . i add iscsi adapter to add a san storage on anothe vm running free nas (on work station  11).

i build couple of machine on the esxi and everything fine.

the problem began after shutting down the esxi and restarting it  ..

at first i wasn't able to connect to the esxi at all from vsphere , only from ssh .   it gave error 503 . 

even threw http , i couldn't get to the esxi home page.

it solved only by reset completely the esxi from the esxi menu .

after i log on again from vsphere , i noticed that i cant add iscsi storage adapter and every time i try to it just disconnect the session and receive again error 503  . .   

for now i cant get my storage back..

any suggestions >?  ?
