please disagree to my posting.......
I figured it out what I was missing....
I had to add an entry in the vnInventory.xml file:

[root@base1 hostd]# cd /etc/vmware/hostd/
[root@base1 hostd]# ls
authorization.xml env hostsvc.xml pools.xml
bak.vmInventory.xml environments.xml hwInfo.xml vmAutoStart.xml
config.xml esxinfo.vha key.pub vmInventory.xml
[root@base1 hostd]#
[root@base1 hostd]# cat vmInventory.xml
<ConfigRoot>
<ConfigEntry id="0001">
<objID>32</objID>
<vmxCfgPath>/vmfs/volumes/46e0a712-bbef98d6-a7e3-0002a54d0f36/Unity
4.0/Unity 4.0.vmx</vmxCfgPath>
</ConfigEntry>
<ConfigEntry id="0002">

<vmxCfgPath>/vmfs/volumes/46e0a712-bbef98d6-a7e3-0002a54d0f36/cucm6/cucm6.vmx</vmxCfgPath>
</ConfigEntry>
<ConfigEntry id="0003">
