> This warning was generated from an ESXi 5.5 host. I'm not sure it is a problems for 4.x. Either way, it should be disabled for 5.x hosts. I don't think it's worth putting too much effort into since it is no longer necessary for modern hosts. No harm is done when this subroutine fails. It is only called if the state is timeout.
