Delayed writting error (phisical server + virtual (vmware) client)

Question

Hello all,

I had a computer that acted as the database server.
Apart from that I had some clients of that server.

Now I've put the clients on virtual machines (one client = one virtual machine).

The problem is that if I'm trying to read data that takes a long time to be harvested, then I get the error "DELAYED WRITE ERROR" and it fails the job.

Everything works fine except for the jobs that it takes time to be processed.

Anyone here knows of a magic setting that could help?

PS: I've searched the web and the best options I've found are to make the data local... something that is out of the league as it is not possible.

As always, thank you in advance.

You could try to turn off the hdd option: Enable write caching on the disk

Have a look here for more info:
