i have a v5 DSS server that i am looking to upgrade soon but still stuck on
it at the moment.. we have this server backending vcenter hosts. yesterday
we vmotioned hosts around and reworked some of the networking. it seems
that now we cannot add another connection to the NFS share. the host that we
want to add is already listed in the 'active connections' . is there a
way to bounce that connection?

we have tried adding other hosts but no luck. all are refused.

below is the logs from our vcenter..

thanks

I can definitely ping the NAS:
