Instant Discovery job fails immediately

[firestartah]

It looks like i'm really adding them today. When i try run any kind of discovery job it fails immediately with a "Failed to generate request: Failed to execute method...." error as shown in the attached screenshot. I have tried the steps mentioned in this kb article kb.vmware.com/kb/2001678

But it doesn't fully apply to my error and the steps didn't fix the problem. Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this? I followed every installation step to the last letter so i'm pretty confident it isn't a configuration mistake

it looks like this is related to my VCM Collector Service not starting. when i try start it by clicking on collector status and pressing the start button i get this below error

Usually this is related to permissions with one of the dcom objects that vCM uses.  Support should be able to help you resolve this fairly quickly.
