I have a cluster comprising 3 ESXi 5.5 nodes. I'm trying to set up profile compliance on this cluster, however I am unable to generate the host profile using any of the nodes as the reference host.
The error on nodes 1 & 2 is:
A general system error occurred:
Call "HostProfileManager.CreateProfile" for object "HostProfileManager" on vCenter Server "<vcenter server>" failed.
The error on node 3 is slightly different:
A general system error occurred:
Call "HostProfileManager.CreateProfile" for object "HostProfileManager" on vCenter Server "<vcenter server>" failed.

Does anyone have an idea why I am unable to generate these profiles? I've added other standalone hosts (in other datacentres) to test and I am able to generate profiles from those without issue. I tried taking one of the above 3 nodes out of the cluster to generate the profile but I received the same errors as above.
