I had a situation, trying to connect RVTools to vCenter, where I was told there was no response by vCenter to a SOAP request. The message was not exactly the same, but then my vCenter was 7.0.2. I'm sorry I no longer have the VMware support article references handy, but what solved my problem was to go into the VMSA management UI and start the Auto Deploy service.
If I can find those references in a reasonable amount of time, I'll post them here.

Hello Sven
Shooting in the dark here a bit. But maybe check and confirm if the MOB interface is up, running and available.
You can follow the following article:

Hi,
I run into this error , when I tried to add a probe for VMWare vCenter.
Unable to connect to vCenter server.Client received SOAP Fault from server: Permission to perform this operation was denied. Please see the server log to find more detail regarding exact cause of the failure.
VMWare Version : 6.5
OpsCenter Version : 10.9
Any hints ?
Regards
