Re: Repeated DS2 workload error of all threads not getting connected before timeout

I still suspect a network configuration issue here.  At this point I'd suggest that you disable the NIC(s) that do not connect to your VMmark VMs and attempt to run DVDstore by itself. 

Instructions:

1. Start up 3 command prompts
2. Change Directories to the individual ds2web directories.
   1. cd c:\vclient\ds2webA
   2. cd c:\vclient\ds2webB
   3. cd c:\vclient\ds2webC
3. Configure three command prompts to run three instances of DVDstore and see if they all connect (Do not start them yet).
   1. ds2webdriver.exe --think_time=0.085 --db_size=20gb --warmup_time=0 --n_threads=10 --run_time=600 --target=DS2WebA0
   2. ds2webdriver.exe --think_time=0.085 --db_size=20gb --warmup_time=0 --n_threads=10 --run_time=600 --target=DS2WebB0
   3. ds2webdriver.exe --think_time=0.085 --db_size=20gb --warmup_time=0 --n_threads=10 --run_time=600 --target=DS2WebC0
4. Start all three as fast as possible (IE, switch to the window and press enter)

If they all connect then you likely have a problem with your network configuration as the requests are either going to a proxy or out the wrong NIC.
