To work around this issue, the VMX/MKS SSL cache on the virtual machine needs to be refreshed.

This can be done by migrating the virtual machine to another ESXi host.

If migrating the virtual machine does not resolve the issue, reboot the ESXi host.

To reboot the ESXi host:

1. Power down the affected virtual machine.
2. Place the ESXi host into maintenance mode.
3. Restart the ESXi host.
