Im having a few issues with me VMware environment. I just set a test lab up with the following specs:
VMware Workstation 9 on my PC. Im running everything off a 500GB Samsung EVO SSD with 16GB fast DDR3 RAM, Intel i7 8 core CPU 3.4Ghz
I have the following VM's set up all joined to the domain talking together happily
DC01 - Domain Controller - Server 2008 R2 (1GB RAM)
VM-FILER01 - iSCSI SAN - FreeNas v9 (1GB RAM) (x2 iSCSI Data stores)
VM-FILER02 - iSCSI SAN - FreeNas v9 (1GB RAM) (x2 iSCSI Data stores)
VM-ESXI01 - ESXI Host - ESXI 5.5 (4GB RAM)
VM-ESXI02 - ESXI Host - ESXI 5.5 (4GB RAM)
VM-VCENTER03 - vCenter - Server 2012 (4GB RAM)
All the VM's are on the VMnet8 virtual network group which is NAT
The issue I have is when I try to create a VM on either host host on any of the 4 datastores half way through the setup the host disconnects from the viClient & locks up. 2 minutes minute later the host then comes back online. Im also unable to storage vMotion from any of the datastores.
As a test I crated a VM from locally attached storage on one of my VM hosts & this worked with no issues so the issue is looking like FreeNAS.
I tried uploading an ISO to the datastore & this failed half way through.
I see the following errors. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this fixed?
Ive done some googling but the error codes aren't giving me much.
