ONTAP simulator hang and web-based not response during using

[kimhavvstecs]

Hello, I'm using ONTAP simulator on VMware workstation for testing, and already setup completely. During using the simulator about 1 hour,  it get stuck and not response on browser too.

Anyone having experience the same as me or not? I'm using this simulator version 9.7.

Let me know if you have solution to fix this, thank you.

Hi,

The screenshot you shared isn't really that helpful.

Does the simulator comes back to normal after a while ?

Or maybe you have to reboot it ?

Any particular error you are seeing on the web gui or on the cli ?

My only guess at this point can be that the root vol is getting filled with snapshots.

There maybe more suggestions if you can share us some more details.

Hi,

try to play with adding RAM (1 or 2, or even more GBs) to an ONTAP simulator VM.

BR,
