VMware Error
When I try to access VM console I get the following error:
"Unable to connect to the MKS: Could not connect to the pipe. ... Failed to connect server"
I have tried various things like reinstalling vSphere 5.1,, Adding Host IP to Host File, Disabling firewall etc.. It did not help. Any advise towards a resolution will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Yes, tried from 3 different computers same error. The vms in question are on vSphere5.1 and I have no issues accessing vms on vSphere5.5 from the same computer. Thanks.

Sorry it is the other way round. I am able to access all vms on vSphere5.1 but non from vSphere5.5. I was able to access this without any issues. Tried various browsers too. No luck. Thanks.
You mention browser ?
So are you using the Web Client ?

I think you are right Andrew.
1. I am able to access the VCenter and Hosts (I can do everything except launching VM consoles!)
2. However, I am unable to get ping replies from my vCenter, Hosts or VMs
3. This being our main production unit, I may have to involve my Network admin too (which I will do early next week)
Highly appreciate your assistance.
