TS failed randomly: Error. Received 0x80072ee2 from WinHttpSendRequest

I have a SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 environment and try to create a Build & Capture. I do not make changes to my task sequence and run it on a Virtual ESX VM. It randomly generates errors and once I see the TS complete succesfully.

What could cause the issue ?

SCCM 2012 server ? My VM client NIC ? Network ? Any ideas how to solve this ?

Below a small part from my smsts.log containing the error:

The error occurred as displayed in the log above is not the first log. The OS is already deployed, OS patches are  already installed and about 15 packages are already installed. Then randomly  I get those errors and different packages.
