  • 1.  VCSA vmdird-syslog filling up my logs disk

    Help!  my /var/log/vmware/vmdird log files are filling up my appliance log disk even after I grew it in less than a day.  Currently at 12 GB

    filled with

    I have googled on this and found nothing... other than its the directory daemon.  We have a large AD and it takes forever to login... partially because my user object is in the different OU than the other admins and we have to point to the root of AD.   I'm trying to get that fixed in the mean time... but would like to know what is causing this to fill up so rapidly.

    Thanks

    Bill

    Hi, Mike, thanks, but I have already done that and the additional space gets eaten up immediately pretty much as I can tell.

    I need to figure out why ...

    I'm seeing the same issue with both external 6.5 PSC at one of my sites.  Did you ever get this resolved?
