Environment

Product Version: 1.4

Resolution

All ESX servers in the agents Vsphere environment must be in  DNS and resolvable. They were not in this case 

 

root@dms-provider [ ~ ]# nslookup host.exmaple.com
 Server:		127.0.0.53
Address:	127.0.0.53#53

** server can't find host.exmaple.com: NXDOMAIN

Adding the entries resolved this 
 

root@dms-provider [ ~ ]# nslookup host.exmaple.com 
Server:		127.0.0.53
Address:	127.0.0.53#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: host.exmaple.com
Address: 10.0.0.1
