ESXi 5 Storage Certification - Test marked as failed, though the main test passes successfully

I am running Storage certification test on ESXi 5.0 using vmware workbenh 2.0.

The test whichis being run is passing fine, but the final result comes as Fail

From the log files, I see the vmotion test has passed succesfully but the over all test result is marked as failed because of erroe message

[Jan 27 2012 19:33:07 : HOST      ] [0] ERROR:  /tmp/ESXiAVM1winlsi-iozone-duration-1327692655.0.log file does not exist  on the launch host.

When I log on to the particular host I do see c:\tmp folder on the VM having the file.

I am not sure why the workbenh is not able to acces the file. Becaus eo fthis most of the tests whic pass is marked as Failed

Here is the summary of test result

Here is some more info from the log files hich show it is unable to access the iozone log files from the workbench.

If anyone has run storage certification test, please let me know how to make sure the windows VM log files in the tmp folder is seen by workbench

Pls let me know if additional information is needed.

Appretiate your suggestion on this.
