I see almost all the vm are showing as invalid. This could be because of the storage unavailability.  Do you see all the datastore visible in the vcenter?

What is the full error you are seeing after logs 'cannot open disk' path..... like snapshots or parent disk, something like this !

Please see the issues in this KB if this is one of them : Cannot power on a VM because the virtual disk cannot be opened (1004232) | VMware KB

No. It could only see the datastore from netapp. All the other datastores local to the hosts were inaccessible.

Then probably the issue is with local host's storage controller, check hardware logs of the lost and server LEDs etc.
