CHECK_VMWARE_API.PL CRITICAL - Server version unavailable -Nagios Alert

Need to understand Error and solution  if this is issue with Nagios app running on Linux server or if all resulted due to Network Glitch

Error in Alert is
"HOST CHECK_VMWARE_API.PL CRITICAL - Server version unavailable at 'https://192.168.1.17:443/sdk/vimService.wsdl' at /usr/share/perl/5.10/VMware/VICommon.pm line 734"

What all are precautionary actions required to avoid such error alerts ?
Is there nay recommendation before we configure Nagios for N number of alerts /Devices /VMware /vCentere  
How actually load is decided before we configure nagios for monitoring

Thanks Andrew
Is it module or worker file we need to update ?

Any best practice to follow here in such situation ?
Check your Nagios is up to date and can manage the host version you have.

Is it none related to Vmware? as Nagios is claiming its all due to VMware , what all can be checked @VMware if required and what all we can cross check with Nagios -Nagios is configured @ Linux VM running on Vc which is monitored by Nagios
What do Nagios is wrong with VMware, if they think it's VMware ?

Is there any thing to be checked with  VC Certificate ?


What if we have multiple versions managed by VC like 5.5 ,6.0 and 6.5
Any version of Nagios ,Plugin ,worker to be verified and changed ?
How can we distribute load for per worker?
Any config/update required for perl /API /plugins  @Vc level

 and std process we need to follow before configuring worker for specified alerts load/devices to be managed
Thanks
