I just built a new ESXi 5.5 server and I'm noticing a weird issue with regard to when I manually power on a guest VM.
Every time I manually power on a VM the process takes exactly 45 seconds to complete. I'm referring to the time the VMware task itself takes to complete not how long it takes the guest OS to startup. After that 45 seconds I then see the OS booting normally in the console.
However when I power down a VM the task completes immediate. Since it takes 45 seconds for the task to complete every time I'm assuming it's a setting somewhere but I've never seen this one before on my previous ESXi server builds.
