reset esxi physical hardware status event log and sensor failed

[yunya09]

Hello everyone,

Recently we experience a strange problem as below detail info.

ESXi 5.5

windows vCenter  6.0

vCenter report warning “the esxi host memory status error”

But collect HP physical server active health log to HP manufactor  engineer analyse。The conclusion physical server is normal，memory okay,everyting okay. So I think maybe vCenter report warning not Correct ？

so I take those step to clear esxi physical hardware status  event log and reset sensor,but got error  message to connect remote sever,reset sensor failed.

Steps:

1、to restart sfcbd-watchdog, run this command from the ESX console:

/etc/init.d/sfcbd-watchdog restart

2、remove esxi to cluster then readd to it

3、reboot esxi

4、reboot vCenter

How to fix it？So everybody who have idea or similar experience about it .  thanks for your kindly reply.

The problem remains unresolved.

vCenter Web Client fails when updating or resetting the host sensors，When resetting the host sensors, vCenter Web Client fails with the error:

"The "Resetting host sensors..." operation failed for the entity with the following error message. An error occurred while trying to communicate with the remote service. See the server logs for details."
