Fusion 7.0.1 + Yosemite: stopped working

I've been on Yosemite on this machine since it hit released, and on Fusion 7 since it released.  Now on 10.10.1 and 7.0.1 respectively.

On one machine http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac-core-i7-3.4-27-inch-aluminum-late-2012-specs.h... everything was working fine, when suddenly both Win 7 and Ubuntu 14.04.1 VMs froze with an "internal VMWare issue".  I elected to get the dump from one of them, then when it was done, rebooted the Mac.

Now when I try to start any VM on that machine, I get "Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory."  I tried the http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=100348... methods in the KB article, un-install, download, install, repair disk permissions, reboot, and no difference.  Anyone seen a way to deal with this?

Fixed.

Had an awesome troubleshooting session on the phone and WebEx with Mohanraj from VMWare support.  The eventual solution was to re-apply the OS/X 10.10.1 update, which fixed the Yosemite problem with being unable to load a kernel extension, com.apple.kpi.mach which was blocking vmmon from loading.
