Type hostname to see if the hostname has changed, or access the VAMI on port 5480 and look at the networking information.

Check for error statements in /var/log/vmware/vpxd.log when you attempt to start the service.

Looks like some corruption in the binaries, you can export the vcenter database and deploy a new vcenter appliance, then import the database on it. This will give you a new VC with same data.
