Before ESX 7.0.3, I can count the number of times I had to call VMswear for support on one hand.... Heck, one finger. They seriously screwed the pooch on 7.0.3. We had to open several tickets with them about new issues.
This is all ESXi 6. The customer doesn't want to upgrade to 7. Jaja.
So this is, in theory, the "good" Vmware.
ROFL! Just don't upgrade them to 7.0.3. Apparently, that's when the problems really got bad.

one of the issues that we ran into is apparently a common filesystem corruption problem with 6.5. A key problem with Vmware is that it doesn't have the filesystem reliability of any modern OS.
I've run VMware since v2.0 in various forms and have NEVER had file system corruption happen. That's crazy! .... although as of late, I can definitely believe it, lol.

I had the same feeling. How could a filesystem be bad in this age? And such a simple one!

I feel your pain. I've been up since 4am EST (it's now ~7:20 EST)... Still pouring caffeine into me to see if I can get my motivation for the day.

That's many years of process. It takes six months or so just for the US to produce the necessary paperwork to file!

So you have to go high five a border guard, and collect a stamp so you can stay in Nicaragua?
All because immigration processes? -
