hi
I am getting this error on my Exsi, Ver 5.0 with update 3
"virtual machine creation may fail because agent is unable to retrieve vm creation options from host (vmodl.fault.hostcommunication) and node getting hang,"
what could be the reason?
Restart the management agents on the host and then try again.
But you know that ESXi 5 is out of support and you should upgrade to 6.5/6.7
Hi
Check if the following VMware KB article helps:
