I also recently started getting these errors.  They started when I upgraded 
from 3.4.0 to 3.4.2.
The error appears on certain VMs (but not all) consistently every 15 minutes.  
It doesn't matter if the "Memory Balloon Device Enabled" checkbox checked or 
unchecked.

I got the message to stop appearing by changing the value of Physical Memory 
Guaranteed to match the VMs configured memory.

Just an FYI.

In my case the balloon driver was installed and it was running. The problem was 
eventually resolved by uninstalling the entire agent suite, rebooting and 
reinstalling it. Doing the same just for the balloon driver didn't work.

John

I'm seeing it for a VM that most definitely does have the balloon driver 
installed. Care to take another guess?

you receive this error because on your cluster configurations you have checked 
"Enable Memory Balloon Optimization", and on some of your VMs there aren't 
balloon driver available; if you don't want anymore this warning messages you 
can uncheck this under

Clusters -> (select your cluster) edit -> Optimization -> uncheck Enable Memory 
Balloon Optimization
