VMware ESXi 5.1.0 のパッチが先週リリースされていたようです。
内容については上記Webサイトを確認していただければいいかと思いますが、PowerPath関連が2件とView Storage Acceleratorという機能面の改修のバグフィックスが今回の内容のようです。
PR919634: When you perform an upgrade from vSphere 5.0 to vSphere 5.1 with PowerPath/VE 5.7 or PowerPath/VE 5.7 P01 already present and attempt to unclaim and claim these PowerPath devices, the ESXi host might fail with a purple diagnostics screen displaying the following messages:

PR922576: When you perform an upgrade from vSphere 5.0 to vSphere 5.1 with PowerPath/VE 5.7 or PowerPath/VE 5.7 P01 already present, persistent settings, such as load balancing policy or feature enable/disable, are not preserved across reboots.

PR923756: When the View Storage Accelerator feature is enabled in View, Multiple Content-Based Read Cache (CBRC) disable requests issued from View to hostd might cause View to lose connectivity to an ESXi host.

自宅環境で適用した限りでは、最初に適用しようとした場合、何故かupdateコマンドではうまくいかなかったので、ESXi5.1.0をクリーンインストールしなおした後に、今度はinstallコマンドで適用したところ、正常に適用することができました。
