Hi,
I am running a whitebox server since 2013. The esxi version has being upgraded up to now 6.7.
Since Dec last year, I am experiencing a strange issue and despite searches on Google and different forums I could not find guidance on how to understand/correct the issue.
I have currently 4 hard drive attached to my systems. Sometimes - and I have no clue about the root cause - I lose the storages: the gui shows the 4 disks but they have all 0 GB of capacity/provisioned/free. A "rescan" of the storages or the adaptors does nothing. There is no message on the console.
Of course,
- all VM accessing the drives have issues and most of them crash.
- I have no log as the disk is not accessible (I am currently trying sending logs on a separated syslog server)
If I reboot my esxi, all comes back to normal.
I though first to an hardware issue but if this is the case why a reboot solve the issue? If it is not hardware, what could it be?
Thanks in advance.
