EMC UnifiedStorage Plugin for VMWare 2.0
I called into EMC support and they really dont know what to do with it. they keep trying to kick it back to vmware.
Basicly, i created some NFS datastores and compressed some of the VM's in those datastores using the plugin. i have a compress job that is stuck, it's been running for several days with no way to cancel it.
i think it is effecting my performance to NFS datastores. Several of the other VM's compressed fine.
I just need to figure out how to CANCEL this task that is "In Proress"
No Events found!

Hi Robert,
I have had similar situations where a process started by the Plug-in seems to continue forever. Most of these errors occurred after I did something "bad" (like deleting a file system) to the underlying storage. My environment was non-production so I just rebooted the vCenter server to dispose of the rogue processes.

Thought it would be a good idea to duplicate my response in the Unified Storage forum here for everyones benefit.
Robert,
Spoke with one of my engineers he tells me you have an orphaned task because you likely closed the vCenter client before the compression task completed. The way to clear this up is to restart your vCenter server process. To remove a stuck task you need to restart your VMware vCenter Server or restart the VMware vCenter Server services. Here's a link that tells you how to do this. http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1003895
Let us know how this worked out.
