Hiya - looking for some feedback from the community on an issue I'm seeing. Thanks in advance for any insights. Some background: We're using two ReadyNAS 3200's to host virtual machines via NFS. ...

Hi jlehtinen,
Have you, by any chance, got this issue sorted? We are having same issue here since ever.
We use ReadyNAS 4200 as NFS datastores for VMs running virtual backup appliances.
During backup window, ReadyNAS is under intensive I/O and I believe it cant handle the load. It will happen if more than 2 backups are running at the same time.
We have 10GB NICs setup as a Team, with Active/Backup policy.
I have upgraded firmware on it over and over, but none of them have fixed the issue. Currently installed version is RAIDiator 4.2.23.
ESXi are running 5.1 U1, but the issue happened when hosts were running 5.0 as well.
We have 3 ReadyNAS devices attached to ESXi hosts and the issue happens on all of them, ones more often then the others.
