VM Network drops over night

Hey all!

I have another weird one.

I have ONE VM...Yes, ONE (Persistent) that every night the network seems to drop. In order to browse to any network shares, the VM must be rebooted first. Once rebooted, it works great all day.

I've re-installed the VMware Horizon Agent & Tools to no avail.

Anyone have any suggestions on what I could try next?

TYIA!

I would first take a look at the VM's power options. Especially the power options for the network card.

If not done already, set the power options to High Performance.

Thanks for the info. This was one of the first things I checked on the problem VM.

I have a suspicion that this could be caused by a process that runs on this VM over night.
