VM freeze

[DT2960]

Hi

I have two HP DL380G5 with Esx4 on each server linked Scsi to a HP San Msa2012i . Vmware is Vsphere 4 , I have created some virtual machines and my problem is every 5 mn the virtual freeze during 30s and after the VM working normaly. This issue is in my both servers esx4 .

On 6 virtual machines (Server 2k3, and XP) I have this issue on 4 virtual machines.

The esx servers are up to date , and I use Vmware Vcenter to manage all.

I have attached a print screen when my VM freeze to show the small icone upper right on my vm during freezing.

Thank you for your help

Have you attempted to narrow do the issue to storage or maybe networking related? Do you see anything of use in the vmkernel log?

I ran some searchs on some of the timeout issues listed in the log and found a another post regarding VM feezes. Their issue ended up being the CD-ROM that the VM's were pointed to. See this post for some additonal information
