Suddenly unable to log into vSphere 5.5

I was faced with the following error when attempting to login into vSphere yesterday morning.  No updates/upgrades where performed on the system

503 Service Unavailable (Failed to connect to endpoint: [N7Vmacore4Http16LocalServiceSpecE:0x7f5549785a20] _serverNamespace = /vsphere-client _isRedirect = false _port = 9090)

I restarted the vCenter VM command-line on the ESXi host.  I rebooted the ESXi host.  No success.

I've came across a few articles regarding some steps that can be performed from the VCSA VM; however, I have neither console or SSH access to VCSA.

Is rebuilding VCSA my only option?

Thanks!

Was able to finally gain SSH access to VCSA and discovered and that my root partition was full.  Followed the following article VMware Knowledge Base resolved my issue.
