Is the host name in the URI referring to this vCenter? In this case
you need to use a vpx:// style URI:

virch -c vpx://vcenter-server/datacenter/esx-server?no_verify=1&auto_answer=1

See http://libvirt.org/drvesx.html#uriformat for more details.

But actually libvirt should complain if you use a esx:// URI to
connect to a vCenter server.
