What happens if scratch partition goes away?

$

Hello,

 

What happens if the scratch partition suddenly goes away?

 

I've got the ScratchConfig.ConfiguredScratchLocation set to a NFS mounted datastore.

and Syslog.global.logDir set to /scratch/log

 

What happens if that NFS datastore has an outage?  Say for 3 hours.. so not a quick reboot.

 

Will ESX ride through it and just not be able to log?

Will it PSOD?

 

I know this NFS server is going to have an extended outage in a few days.  Should I go through all my ESX servers now

and change them to another NFS server?  That's a pain, because it requires a reboot of all the ESX hosts.

 

ESX 6U3  Build 5050593

 

Thanks.
