Excel and Delayed write failed

[Guest Michael]

We just moved all the operations from a File/print server to a new one and

everything is working except for a shared excel spreadsheet. the users are

reporting that they get "Delayed write failed" when trying to write to this

shared file.

 

I have checked all the settings and permissions and they are able to use

other files fine.

 

I have found some notes on the web about auto neg between the nics and the

switch port. the old server were HP NICS and now they are Built in Broadcom

cards teamed together.

 

Any thoughts? thanks

RE: Excel and Delayed write failed

 

Michael,

 

Break the team to see if it fixes the issue. If they are properly team, the

risk you incur is of nic failure. since you'll be watching it closely, the

risk is mitigated. This is the first step in troubleshooting this.
