Hello again everybody,
I'm trying to copy a couple of 50GB Virtual machines from the primary hard drives datastore to the newly mounted Netgear ReadyNAS device via NFS. I first tried it via the VSphere Client interface, then from command line via NFS. Both times thus far, I get to around 15 or 20GB of copying when the ReadyNAS device disconnects and then becomes inactive - unmounted. I can not remount it unless I reboot the ReadyNAS device, even though I can still ssh into the ReadyNAS or web console into it. All fingers are pointing to the ReadyNAS device as the culprit, maybe too much for it to handle over NFS. Any ideas why I cannot complete this copy to a ReadyNAS device? I'm ultimately trying to reconfigure the RAID on this server so I need to copy the VM's off and eventually back to the reconfigured server.
I checked for any and all firmware updates on the NAS device so it's on the latest version.
Thanks,
Jim
