According to VMWare communities there is a registry setting on the problem servers here: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\parameters]"ldapserverintegrity"=dword:00000001 Once this registry key is removed from said machines and the ADWS and VMwareVCMSDS services set to start automatically, a reboot of both machines clears the error.
