Hi
Am finding it takes quite a long time ie several minutes, for the following commands to finish executing (but without failure!) when logged in via ssh in tech support mode. It is Esxi4.0...which I agree is quite old:
ls -asl /
(ie listing the root directory)
ls -asl /vmfsvolumes
ls: ./e00f98e1-2bcc0c91-e7a2-3487611c1557: Connection timed out
ls: ./8651407d-22f5a0a4-44b3-aa1ac5b23fe8: Connection timed out
ls: ./4bbcb300-91be9561-f4d1-00270e22118d: Connection timed out

Is my vmware about to fail?
Someone said it could be the datastore (which is on a NAS), and which has had some anomalous behaviour lately
anything else I can check?
should I reboot the vmware OS?
Thanks
