Welcome to the Community,

I can't tell you what was causing this, but according to the support bundle you provided, three of the required .vmdk files are missing (Virtual Disk-s001.vmdk, Virtual Disk-s002.vmdk, and Virtual Disk-s003.vmdk). These files however still existed when you used the VM at "2015-05-23T12:29:04.017+10:00" (see vmware.log).

Since the VM is running on a snapshot and the base .vmdk files have a time stamp of April, 14th, you should be able to recover these three files from a recent backup (assuming you are regularly backing up your system). You may also want to check whether there's a lost+found folder on your system which contains the files!?
