Problems discovering ESXi 5.0 hosts in SIM 7.1

I have a problem trying to discover hosts (and their VMS) in a newish SIM install.  The hosts are using the HP VMware package.  The firewall settings appear to be correct, and the CIM services are running.  The root credentials are in place.  I've checked to make sure that the hosts are listening on 5989 and 5988 (they are).  I've attached screens of the services and firewalls just in case. 

What is happening during discovery is that it hangs on the WBEM.  It just sits there and times out.  Since the ports are open, services are running (and have even been restarted), and I can telnet to the ports I am not sure what is going on.

Please help!

looks perfect for Esxi discovery in HPSIM.

Can you share the discovery output. What HPSIM is complaining about :) ?

if it helped, award me Kudos or Points. Thanks :)

I've attached the discovery results.  When I watch the discovery run, the WBEM just sits there until it times out.
