Damn vCenter (and VMWare)!

This morning starts with the purple screen of death (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware_ESX#Purple_diagnostic_screen)

now I’m getting sorry not checking out exactly what it said, as i just restarted the server.

and after restart – the VM is in an awkward state – cannot be shutdown and I cannot access its Console “Unable to connect to the MKS:…”

two hours already gone for this sh*t!
