Failure Adding ESXi Host to Nexus 1000v using VUM 2.0

I'm trying to deploy 1000v in a lab and I'm having trouble adding an ESXi host to the 1000v switch. I'm using VSUM 2.0 wizard to add the ESXi host to the 1000v. The vSphere Tasks shows the following line:

Name: Add host to Cisco DVS, Status: fault.com.cisco.n1kv.internalerror.summary

I connected to the 1000v switch and I could see that it generated the port groups but no errors.

A 'show module vem' says 'No Virtual Ethernet Modules Found.'

From my 1000v, I am able to ping the ESXi management IP address. 

It is my understanding that the VSUM wizard should have migrated the uplinks as well as the VMs (currently only VSUM and 1000v). Has anyone seen this error before?

We were seeing this problem also.  Using the auto-created port-profile was not successful.  However manually created profiles were successful:

port-profile type ethernet N1KV-UPLINK
 switchport mode trunk
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 138
 no shutdown
 system vlan 138
 state enabled
 vmware port-group
port-profile type vethernet N1KV-VEM
 switchport access vlan 138
 switchport mode access
 no shutdown
 capability l3control
 system vlan 138
 state enabled
 vmware port-group
