Error 354 - Failed to enable CBT - Version VMX-08

Message: Failed to enable Changed Blocks Tracking for virtual machine 'vm://E5CCC0EA-2169-46F8-A498-17C100809291/5025db68-d5b3-e1c4-40cf-55059a850a9b?host=host-9&type=vmwesx'.
--------------------
That is the error message I receive in the post-backup e-mail; it only occurs one one VM, which is the web server running Server 2003 R2 x64 -- the same OS and VM configuration as all of the other machines; VM ver is vmx08.
According to Acronis web interface, ALL backups completed without errors -- looking through the logs relative to the backup operation discussed in the e-mail there are no errors, however there is a mention of the failure (listed as a information though, not warning or error)... times are a bit off from the e-mail (2hrs -- see attachment).

Vasily,
Thanks for the reply! That's the odd thing -- the VMX for all of the VM's actually does show ctkEnabled; it's a bit different than the parameter casing and format you posted though -- see below.
All VM's (one reported as failure by Acronis, and others) have the same ctkEnabled status and format within the config; the only difference is that the line location is different; but overall, parameter and values are the same.
VM showing Acronis failure to enable CBT:
scsi0:0.ctkEnabled = "TRUE"
ctkEnabled = "TRUE"
VM not showing any Acronis failure on CBT:
scsi0:0.ctkEnabled = "TRUE"
ctkEnabled = "TRUE"
Log files sent to you via PM.

Hi Travis,
The order of the parameters doesn't matter. The thing that concerns here is the uper case spelling of TRUE word. In the .vmx files that you've sent all the other parameters which have "true" value are spelled in lower case, except for ctEnabled and scsi0:0.ctkEnabled. This might be the case here too (i.e. changing "TRUE" into "true" in vm configuration may do the trick), if this doesn't help then please check the detailed instructions which I've sent you via PM so that we can check which properties are returned for the affected VMs by the vSphere Object Browser. Please check it and let me know if there are any problems following the steps.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Travis, I was just checking up on this. So how did this work out for you if I may ask?
