I have had the same issue for over a year on ESX 3.5 as well as on vSphere<br>
4.0. I have not tried yet on 4.1. The error occurs when I put the shared<br>
disk on either SATA or FC LUNs on our SAN. It also doesn't matter if the<br>
virtual machines are on the same physical host or not (with independent<br>
disks). The only problem that has come from it is the occasional reboot of<br>
one of the VMs, which for me is tolerable. I keep hoping to upgrade to a<br>
new SAN thinking that might fix it. The vSphere 4.0 release IOPS<br>
capability is higher than the SAN (it's 5 years old) so I didn't think it<br>
was VMware's fault. If you have fairly new hardware, maybe there is a real<br>
bug somewhere. I don't get I/O errors in any of my other implementations<br>
on this SAN. I sent a post like yours to the list when I first built it,<br>
but never opened a bug report with either OCFS or VMware. If you create a<br>
bug report I could add information from my implementation as well. (I<br>
actually have two of these setups and they both have the same errors.)<br>
<br>
Of course, if you find a solution, please post that as well.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
