I have normally seen this happen when someone tries to reconfigure a VM say upgrading CPU or memory and hot add is not enabled it can wait until the next time the vm is shutdown to change the settings.

Hi ,

I ran below command to clear the pending task, when we ran first query its status shown as "Reconfigure" so ran second query to clear the task.

VMname should be your machine name. Please also take backup of your vcac database .

Query1:

SELECT CurrentTask FROM VirtualMachine WHERE VirtualMachineName IN ('VM name' , 'VM name' , 'VM name')

If it is not "NULL" but it is "Reconfigure" run the below update. Then run data collections again.

Query1:

UPDATE dbo.VirtualMachine SET CurrentTask = NULL WHERE VirtualMachineName IN ('VM name' , 'VM name' , 'VM name') .

Hopefully that will fix your issue .
