Problem:
VMWare error: "Error opening the remote virtual machine xxxx\xx the host name could not be resolved”
Solution:
The problem lies in the URL you use to login to the VMware server console. the default URL that VMware server creates is like https://xxxxx-xxc:8333/ui/# if you substitute the computer name for “localhost” that should fix the problem. the URL to login to the VMware server console should be https://localhost:8333/ui/#
