VVF VSAN capacity exceeding entitlement calculation logs

  • 1.  VVF VSAN capacity exceeding entitlement calculation logs

    Hello,

    I have a test cluster that is running the "VVF for VDI Omnissa/Broadcom Bundle" license on a small test cluster.   It has 32 cores in the cluster.  I'm using (3) * 400GB disks for the capacity layer.   So 1200GB/32 Cores = 37GB/Core.    However, the vcenter keeps alerting with the  VSAN capacity exceeding entitlement alarm.   The alarm states that the vsan usage is over 337GB/Core..   I see no math that gets to that.   I've had a case open with both Broadcom and Omnissa.. no one seems to be able to understand why its saying the vsan is using 337 GB/Core.  The VSAN reported capacity is 1.1TB.  The cluster reports 32 total processors.    There is no way to get to 337 GB/Core here.

    Does anyone know where on the vCenter the logs would be generated while doing this calculation?  I've got to drill down into this myself and find the root cause.    This is a test cluster that I built specifically to test these license issue before I put these new license key on our production Horizon cluster.

    Thanks!
