Advice on ESXi 5.1 Health / Storage
We had an 'issue' with one of our VMs, upon reboot the Linux file system needed repair.
At around the same time I see - "Lost access to volume 5351714a-0e19f12c-cc94-d07 2dca029b6 (datastore1) due to connectivity issues. Recovery attempt is in progress and outcome will be reported shortly."
in the ESXi Host's Events which seems to indicate a disk issue -
Also, the Health Status shows alerts storage alerts ->
I understand that a heartbeat was missed to cause the "loss access to volume" and it was restored - but why? Wht does this indicate? and pls explain what I'm seeing in the Storage summary? Why does it shod "DriveFauly" on all and Alert on a couple? What else can be done to identify the cause?
