Getting "An error occurred while taking a snapshot A digest operation has failed"

Getting "An error occurred while taking a snapshot A digest operation has failed" on a few VMs when trying to create a snapshot.  These VMs have nothing in common except that they're all on ESXi 7 hosts. Different OS, different hosts, different clusters, different storage, different virtual centers.

We were made aware of this because our Netbackup backup failed on these VMs last night.  There haven't been any changes to the environment recently.  We upgraded to v7 about a month ago.

Here's what I've tried:

Powered off VM

Moved to different host

Moved to different storage

Moved to different cluster

I'm stumped at this point.

Other things I have tried are removing the VM from inventory and re-adding it and, connecting directly to the host to do the sanpshot
