ESX4 Storage Motion

[gharding]

All,
I am trying to use storage motion to move a running vms disks to an open-e server FC Lun but I am getting a time out problem and a critical error in the open-e hardware system_load log as shown below

03-02 21:25:53.344699 CRITICAL System overload!! Avg WA(Waiting for I/O operations): 27.34

these tweaks will help:

make sure to be on the most recent release of DSS.
making these tweaks will reset target connections.
In failover configuration, both nodes must have the same target values, before failing over.

Thanks for the reply so this applies to Fibre Channel Luns as well as iscsi?

if i reboot the sever then it works for a while then errors again

How much RAM in the machine ?

16GB Memory, it works ok with iscsi but FC seems to cause the problem
