This operation cannot be done while the VM is in use by VMware Fusion.

I created a few scripts that use the vmrun utility to control the state of a virtual machine via a web interface.  When trying to revert to a snapshot I get this message:

Error: This operation cannot be done while the VM is in use by VMware Fusion. Please exit Fusion and try again.
The VM is not in use by VMware fusion.  VMware Fusion is not even running.  I have started the machine using vmrun.
Can anyone give any insight behind this message?  Like what sort of things it looks for (I have already deleted all the *.lck folders in the VM's directory after removing the VM from the Fusion Library while the machine was off)
Any help would be appreciated.
