| Description | The following information is part of the event: d:\vm\ttpro test\ttpro test\windows 2000 server.vmx, warning, Could not connect to floppy "A:". It is probably being used by another VMware GSX Server virtual machine or some other program. It will start disconnected, [OK]. |
| Event Information | The following information from a newsgroup post may help you to understand this event. We found that the error occurs on VMDK disk. We built all our disks as .PLN and found that exact error message went away. I personally believe the cause is a file that is large enough to span inside a VM guest from 1 chunk to another and there is a delay in opening the second chunk. This crippled our production VM servers, however like I said, when we moved to PLN disk, that issue went away. |
