Any change done recently in your vCenter Server? Can you attach the following logs:

vCenter Server logs:

Windows XP/2000/2003 – % ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\Logs\

Windows Vista/7/2008 –  ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\Logs\

Single Sign-On logs:

In the %Program Files%\VMware\Infrastructure\SSOServer\logs\LookupServer.log
