Resolution

Warning: If virtual machines are running on a datastore and the disk becomes full it is possible that running virtual machines can become corrupted. Regularly check the amount of free space on your datastores to ensure that they are not about to run out of space. For more information, see Investigating disk space on an ESX host (1003564), or view the free space using the Virtual Infrastructure (VI) client, click Configuration > Storage. To understand disk space usage, see Assessing Virtual Machine Disk Space in the Lab Manager 2.x User Guide and View Virtual Machine Datastore Usage in the Lab Manager 3.x and 4.x User Guide.

Validate that each troubleshooting step below is true for your environment. The steps will provide instructions or a link to a document, for validating the step and taking corrective action as necessary. The steps are ordered in the most appropriate sequence to isolate the issue and identify the proper resolution. Please do not skip a step.

Ensure that the virtual machine data storage is connected and working properly. For more information, see Identifying shared storage issues with ESX 3.x (1003659).

Check that the resource expiration settings are correct and garbage collection is working. For more information, see Setting the resource expiry and testing garbage cleanup functions in VMware vCenter Lab Manager (1006732).

Assess the storage directory tree and ensure that the correct set of virtual disk files (VMDKs) are present. For more information, see Viewing Virtual Machine Storage Usage.

Ensure that all ESX hosts being managed by Lab Manager are connected to the same datastores so that every template and virtual machine is accessible to each ESX host. For more information, see Verifying that ESX virtual machine storage is accessible (1003751).
