Cannot connect to the vCenter. Run the script again. If the problem continue, reopen PowerCLI.
ERROR: The process with PID 14584 could not be terminated.
Reason: There is no running instance of the task.

Note: I changed the thumbprint above from the actual value.
So yes, it appears that the IP address of the vCenter server is not accessible on port 65101, which is correct. I cannot connect to my vCenter server on that port. No, there is no firewall on that system, so the question is what service is supposed to be running on that port?
There is nothing in the install that I saw that shows anything about running a service on vCenter prior to installation.
Thoughts, help???
