Last week, I got Napp-IT deployed using the latest OVA on ESXi 6.5. I configured ZFS with six hard drives and an Optane 900. Everything was working perfectly my storage was just fine on my other ESXi hosts.
I had a need to reinstall ESXi (new SSDs and RAID controller), so I shutdown the NappIT VM, moved it to another datastore, reinstalled ESXi, then copied the NappIT VM back. I also re-configured the PCI Passthru devices and rebooted the host.
I got an error about a PCI device when I tried powering on the VM. I removed the four PCI devices, then re-added them. This time it powered on OK.
However, the VM does not see the Optane 900P and that has put the ZFS in an error state. Since this is my first foray into NappIT/Solaris, I'm not sure where to begin.
Thanks!
