Hi,
I'm having some issues with the quite a few services not starting in vCenter. The service start on boot seems to stick on the vmware-sps services. Here is a list of the services that don't start and the error that I get when I try to start these services by hand....Any ideas and help would be appriciated.

Use service-control --start --all always and will not suggest to start individual services to avoid dependency issues.
Then share the failure and the log file for that service from /var/log/vmware/
