Unable to connect to the MKS

hi All,

I more often see the below message and i know i can fix by moving them to  a different host by vmotion. But i want to proactively know which all VM has got this problem so taht i can write a script to vmotion them automatically.

I checked all that it is setup as it should be. What i am looking here in this forum is there should be a file or something which i can look to find if a machine has that "MKS error"

Basically in other words, lets say i have 10000 VM's in my VC how do i know which VM's are affected by this problem.

Check your network connection with the specific host and check its firewall configurations especially.

Just to put more lights to it......

Here is a scenerio where i have seen it multiple time and in 2 VC

if you try to run services.sh restart on the host which has got VM's running on it and the host is in a cluster all VM's running on that host shows this problem.

Normally, this error appear due to a firewall or network connectivity issue. Will you be able to check that?

I came across with the same error and fixed after changing my firewall rules,
