i setup a physical lab consisting of the following:
two Optiplex 990 small form factors (all i had lying around) as my two esxi hosts ( one Intel 82579LM Gigabit NIC in each host no slots on the small form factor to add any other ones)
1 dell precision T3500 running freenas 9.1 amd64 with:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU W3670 @ 3.20GHz
12266MB
1 integrated NIC as well
iscsi configured
my esxi standard switches are as follows:
it adds the host but shows a warning but when it tries updating the network i get an error with these details. The VM that i am moving is the DC for my lab, would that be the reason i am getting this message since it appears based on this error message that my vcenter server loses connectivity to it?
when i try and add my second host it adds it ok. i have a VM that is currently turned off and was able to move it to the vds.
Any thoughts on where i should start to resolve this problem?
