    Topic Name : Deactivate and Delete a Core Dump File

    Publication Name : vSphere Storage

    Product/Version : VMware vSphere/6.0

    Question :

    I removed a 500GB core dump file using 'esxcli system coredump file remove -f...' and the space has not been reclaimed.  Is there a way to force the space to be freed up and made available to my datastore?

    Use sDelete command for this.
