Hello,
My fileserver has been working flawlessly until yesterday. I was streaming movies and everything kept skipping, this has never happen before.
I logged in to the VM and got the following error below. I restarted the server, and it is still slow! It seems that network connection is running very very slow, or perhaps keeps dropping.
The VM is on a Crucial M4 SSD. Since it says something about memory dump... Well, the VM for OmniOS is already full since it was only 16GB. I have been meaning to re-create VM from scratch and this time make it bigger but have been lazy. Should I just create a new VM from scratch with 30GB VM size this time around? Would that fix the issue?
I have no experience in this. Appreciate any guidance.

Update: Issue is now resolved. The problem was that my OS drive became full. I had to create a new VM. Before closing existing VM, I took screen shot of user accounts and UID and exported pool. Created new VM, installed latest OmniOS and napp-it. Logged into napp-it and re-created the user accounts matching the backed up UID's. Then disable/re-enabled SMB service. Then imported pool. Re-create jobs. Voila, everything is good as new now.
Interestingly, the network share has never been so snappy. I wonder if it's due to optimizations in VMware 5.5 vs. 5.1 or latest OmniOS?
