I have a huge RAID 5 NAS device (10.1.1.115/24) on my internal network and the machine I use to connect to my ESXi server(s) is 10.1.1.50/24. However I do have a server running ESXi on my DMZ interface of my Firewall (Cisco ASA) and the ESXi server IP is 192.168.0.200/24. The problem is when I connect to any server running ESXi from VMware client on 10.1.1.50/24 it works great except the one server on the DMZ interface which is 192.168.0.200/24. I can connect but when I try to install any virtual machines on this host, it takes hours rather than minutes. I can only assume the problem is that I'm trying to build a virtual machine on the DMZ network (192.168.0.x/24) rather than the 10.1.1.x/24 network like I normally do. I don't have any connection errors and nothing is being blocked at the Firewall from what I can see. It's just beyond slow. If I build a virtual server, I usually leave it for the next day because that's how long the disk formatting process takes.
Anyone have any suggestions? Just to be clear:
10.1.1.50 (VMware client) ---> 10.1.1.x (ESXi server) = no problem
10.1.1.50 (VMware client) ---> 192.168.0.x (ESXi server) = super slow disk formatting and installation
All ESXi servers use NFS to map to the NAS device listed above where all the virtual machine shares are stored.
Please help!
