We are using the 'VMware vCenter Server Appliance', version is 5.5.0.
Normally, there are about 2000+ connection in TIME_WAIT status on port 443 when this error happens, and have 80 session in idle in our test env.

So, I want to know, does that mean the VMware driver/VMware API can not release the TCP connection correctly?
Or should I do some tuning on the vCenter server for example to change the ulimit?
