View 4 - The operation is not supported on the object.

[mammer]

Just upgraded to View 4 and I've been frequently getting the error "The operation is not supported on the object." when recomposing or when persistent VM's are rebuilding.

As workaround I've discovered that disconnecting and reconnecting the ESX server from the virtual center fixes the problem for a while, but it does return.

Anyone seen this?

How many ESX servers are in your cluster? Have you disconnected / reconnected them all?

Can you look in the View Composer Server log for errors?

We only have 1 ESX server at the moment (we're piloting)

Found the following in the View Composer support log:

Alright.. I think the problem has been resolved with a VCenter reboot...
