The ESXi management agents can be restarted from the host's console - which is not very convenient. Fortunately they can also be restarted remotely using the SSH & ESXi Shell services - but these are not enabled by default.
In Virtual Center select the host, then the Configuration tab. In the security section select Services and Properties in order to enable ESXi Shell and SSH. For both services perform a manuals start.
