[Nerospeed]

Hi Guys,

I patch my ESXI5 with this Patch http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=201143... and in my vmkernel.log is written follow error:

What meant this error? And how can I fix this problem?

Transient file system condition, suggest retry

Are you getting this without any operations? or while performing a rescan operation.

Did you ever get to the bottom of this?

At exactly the same time almost everyday, we are seeing the following in the logs in ALL of our ESXi 5 hosts:

"Sep 27 01:01:01 vs2.net.ias.edu vmkernel: cpu0:443220)FSS: 890: Failed to get object 1 4 300d91 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 :Transient file system condition, suggest retry"

Tthe time is the exactly the same for both of me and the original poster.  This is too odd not to be significant.  I am wondering now if this is a bug. 

NeroSpeed,  are you also doing NFS over a NetApp?  I was looking the logs from  another vm datacenter.  They are running the same VM version as us,  5.0.0, 76811, but  have a fancier NetApp than ours.  They are not getting these error messages. 

Thank you
