UPDATE!!! :Great article on VMWare NFS (pitfalls)

Gotta love Twitter! I received a note for Vaughn Stewart from NetApp about this post and that there is a hotfix for this exact issue. Looking at the release notes for ESX 3.5U4 the hotfix was rolled into this. So if you’ve upgraded to U4, the hotfix is there but you do need to confirm that the setting for NFS.LocksDisable is set back to a value of 0.
I found this article that was linked from Scott Lowe. It’s about enabling NFS.disableLock settings in ESX when using NFS – particularly when following NetApp’s Best Practice Guide TR3428.
