I have this issue after having a problem with an ISCSI device that I have removed from the system.
The ISCSI Disk is not in the system but ESXi is trying to use it for its Virtual Flash Disk.
Since it is removed, I am unable to remove the Virtual Flash Resource from my Virtual Flash Resource Management Device Backing.
Host flash resource status...
The error reads......
The "Remove virtual flash resource" operation failed for the entity with the following error message: The object or item referred to could not be found
Any suggestions?
VMware ESXi, 5.5.0, 3116895
Thank you!

Hi,
I have the same issue, did you end up resolving yours?
Hi there,
Try one of the following depending on the state of your host:
This should remove the listings from the Virtual Flash Resource Management for the missing disk.
Also ensure that any VMs which had Virtual Flash enabled have this option disabled before attempting either option. In my testing it appears that you will need to restart the host if you have had a VM with this option enabled otherwise a restart of the Management Agents works fine.
Hope this helps.
Yes, I do agree with workarounds specified in last response.
