Hello everybody.

There is a problem, when starting the system. It a moment when stops loading ESXi. I see just vmkap i_v2_2_0_0_vmkernel_shim loaded successfully and in this moment booting stops.

Normal restart cannot resolve problem. I dont' try restart maschine with recovery mode other with boot option.

Thanks for help.

Please use ALT F12 on DCUI when ESXi host is stuck at vmkap i_v2_2_0_0_vmkernel_shim loaded successfully screen. This would give an idea on what is happening at the kernel level and I assume there might be storage issue which ESXi host may take long time to boot.

Thanks,

MS
