ESXi 4.1: The vSPhere Client could not connect...

$

I am receiving an error when trying to connect to a host using the IP address directly and through Virtual Center Server. I am just noticing it, can not tell how long it has been going on.

 

SSH works fine.

All guest servers work fine on this box.

 

I noticed it because I tried running resxtop from my VMA and it took forever to load this server. However, I am not seeing any performance counters that look out of the ordinary. In fact, my utilization looks quite stable.

 

I have tried connecting from different machines, and the client gives the same error on each machine:

 

"The vSphere Client could not connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. The server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx took too long to respond. (The command has timed out as the remote server is taking too long to respond.)"

 

I have reset the management network, and that did not work. Strangely, on the DCUI, pressing F2 does nothing after I put my root credentials in. The screen freezes for a while. I can toggle to the log view and back, but I cannot manage the configuration this way. Everything I have done, I have done through SSH as this seems to still function just fine. System up time is 638 days, I am thinking about rebooting it but that would be a major pain if I have to do that.

 

Suggestions? Thanks in advance.
