5.1 Hosts not showing as compliant.

I have 4 esxi 5.1 hosts that I have added to a existing cluster of 4 other esxi 5.1 hosts. There is a host profile attached at the cluster level. I added the 4 new hosts and they show as non-compliant. I've patched the hosts with the same baseline and group baselines as the "compliant" hosts. I'd love for these hosts to accept the host profile, as what the profile is doing is attached 17 port groups to vSwitch1. When I click on "Host Compliance" is tells me "Host is unavailable for checking compliance" Totally lost. Thanks for any help!

Is there a vDS in the mix? If it is, remove these 4 hosts from it and apply the host profile and check compliance. Then add the hosts back to the vDS.

I dont know what you can do if there's no vDS in there.

Was the host profile created from a 5.1 reference host?

same issue here. - error msg: "Host is unavailable for checking compliance"

@MannyS: not a mixed configuration: it is a pure vDS setup at my side.

@aaronwsmith: yes, the host profile was created from an 5.1 host. (5.1.0, 1157734)

do you have any idea?
