This is a known issue.
Currently, there is no resolution.
Workaround:
To workaround the issue, reduce a number of concurrent snapshots not more than 8:
- Back up /etc/vmware/hostd/hbrsvc.xml.
# cp /etc/vmware/hostd/hbrsvc.xml /etc/vmware/hostd/hbrsvc.xml.backup
- Add the following setting under <ConfigRoot> in /etc/vmware/hostd/hbrsvc.xml:
<hbrMaxConcurrentSnapshotOperations>8</hbrMaxConcurrentSnapshotOperations>
- Save /etc/vmware/hostd/hbrsvc.xml.
- Restart hostd service (e.g. /etc/init.d/hostd restart).
NOTE: The parameter
depends on the environment work load etc..you might need to set the parameter less than 8.
