Atomic Test And Set Of Disk Block Returned False For Equality !!hot!!

This happens in a single, uninterruptible operation. Decoding the Error: "Returned False for Equality"

If they match ( equality ), the host immediately writes new data to the block in one atomic operation . This happens in a single, uninterruptible operation

In distributed systems, a node that was partitioned may have written to a block while another node believed it held the lock. After healing, the TAS fails. Examine cluster membership logs and fencing mechanisms. This happens in a single

: Incompatibilities between specific storage array firmwares and ESXi (particularly ESXi 6.5 and VMFS6) have historically triggered these errors. The Impact: Why You Should Care This happens in a single, uninterruptible operation
