VMControl error -3: Invalid arguments: Login Failed - When using VMWARE-CMD

Hi,

 

 

I had a Vm that wouldn't power on - I received the error "The system returned on error. Communication with the virtual machine may have been interrupted".  I had a look around the Communities and found lots of useful suggestions, the majority related to using the VMWARE-CMD.

 

 

Now I have 8 ESX 3.0.2 servers in a cluster and when I ssh to the console on the other 7 I have no problem running a VMWARE-CMD, but on this particular host which contains the dodgy VM I get the error VMControl error -3:  Invalid arguments: Login Failed - I get this if I try a getstate/start/stop/reset you name it!  I even get it if I just try VMWARE-CMD -l.

 

 

Has anybody had a similar issue?  Any help would be appreciated.

 

 

Thanks
