Unable to access via VSphere Client after temporary loss of storage

Last night, our SAN went down for about 2 hours....of course, there were VM's stored and running on that SAN....We finally resolved the SAN issues but am unable to access the HOST server now from any VSPhere client. Please help.

Thanks

The ESXi is alive?

Have you tried to restart?

Hi

How many hosts do you have in your environment? And are all affected?

Also what sort of SAN do you have, fc / iSCSI etc, as the only thing that should affect vSphere client connectivity would be relating to IP... can you successfully ping your hosts?

I guess a good place to start would be from the direct console and check your network configuration from there (IP settings, NIC settings, logs etc) and see if you can see anything that might point you in the right direction...

Sorry i've not been much use, more questions than answers i'm afriad... 😃
