I'm getting these errors in my hostd logs; can anyone pinpoint my issue?

Are you seeing an error that is pointing you to these log entries? With regards to your log entries, have you enabled validating SSL certificates on the server side?

The errors are only happening on 2 ESX hosts in a cluster of 8. We migrated the VM's off; rebooted the 2 affected hosts; and still see the errors come through. No VM's have been placed back on the hosts. The errors persist.

Can you connect to webaccess on those esx hosts? You can try recreating the ssl certificates on the host itself. Log into the console, 'cd /etc/vmware/ssl'. Move those two files to another location, 'mv * /tmp'. Then restart hostd, 'service mgmt-vmware restart'.

I am getting same errors in hostd.log on one of two vsphere ESX hosts. They symptom is an inability to establish connection (as a result of the SSL failure). The message is attached. I can ping SC and putty into the host. I tried removing SSL files as you suggested and restarting mgmt-vmware service and no luck ?
Check for a version mismatch between the client and ESX or vSphere by going to Help About from within the VI Client.
Got it. It turned out to be a client (IE) Certificate issue. I must have previously told Vi Client to install the certificate for the host I was connecting to. I went into IE, removed the certificate for the host I was having an issue with and then cleared SSL cache and that fixed it for me.
Please award points for correct answers.
This fixed my issue as well. Went to IE, tools, options, contect tab and clicked Clear SSL state. After this the server came back into the vCenter as connected and no issues. This happened to me after a simple reboot of the esxi server.
Thanks for the workaround. Anybody have an idea on a perm fix for this issue?
