SHD logs to check

[Michal Gladyszewski]

Hi All

SHD ver 4.0.3 last analysis failed and would like to know what log to check to get more details.

vSphere analysis failed on step "Validate Logdata" with error message "Validating extracted log bundle failed - [Errno 28] No space left on device. "

I understand that ESXI logs failed to generate duo to space issue but can't find information on what host.

Thanks for help

Step 1: Check SHD Logs for Failed Host
sudo less /opt/vmware-shd/logs/analysis.log

Step 2: Check Disk Space on SHD
df -h

Step 3: Clean Up Old Log Bundles
/opt/vmware-shd/user/logbundles/

You can delete old ones manually: sudo rm -rf /opt/vmware-shd/user/logbundles/* 

Or use the web UI:
* Go to https://<skyline-ip>:5480
* Choose Log Bundles
* Delete old or failed ones

Also clean /tmp/shd/analysis/ if it didn't auto-purge: sudo rm -rf /tmp/shd/analysis/*

Prevent Future Fails:
Modify retention in shd.properties: /opt/vmware-shd/config/shd.properties

Adjust:
retentionDays=7
maxBundlesPerTarget=5

Then restart: sudo systemctl restart shd
