Hi, I've noticed when using rhel 5 and 6 VMs, there is a pause after 5 to 10 minutes of in activity. If I am logged with ssh, there is about a 10 second delay for the VM to "wake up" andthen every other command is fast as usual. This does not happen at the console, just in a ssh session, or trying to bring up a webpage, anything over the network, even pinging the VM waits a few seconds before it starts to work. Yet, I have a Fedora 17, and suse, winXP VM is ok. I tried installing VMware tools, changing the nic driver to e1000, but nothing seems to make any difference.
anyone have any ideas?
I'm using:
ESXI 5 U1 5.0.0 623860
VMwareTools-8.6.5-621624.tar.gz
