Hello @sarwoedi

 

It looks like you have problems accessing storage. I would start making sure your OVCs are fully functional and that the storage network is up and running. Make sure the datastores are mounted in both hosts and accessible. 

 

Using putty to connect, from the OVC you could try the following commands: 
`svtfs status` --> run it on both OVCs. 

`ifconfig` --> Make sure "eth2" interface has an IP assigned. 

 

From the ESXi host run "esxcli storage nfs list". 

 

Have you also looked for hardware issues like failed disks? Try `svt-hardware-show`
