Vmware vCenter – Common Logging Service Health Alarm

Thats means that:

• Service Common Logging Service (VMware-syslog) is stopped (not my case)
• on /storage/logs is out of space

First of all, you need verify, free space on /storage/log. So run SSH service on your vCenter and use putty to log on in via root account.

shell.set --enabled true shell

1 2	shell.set --enabled true shell

enable shell

with df -h command  verify, which disc has a capacity problems – /storage /log – we see that it is used on 88%, so we will increase it.

We will use the vSphere Client or vSphere Web Client and increase capacity on the virtual disk 5 for 10 GB.

vpxd_servicecfg storage lvm autogrow

1	vpxd_servicecfg storage lvm autogrow

Returning back to the SSH console and run the above command – he has the task to scan disks, and if necessary increase of the capacity available. If the operation succeeded, we should see the message „VC_CFG_RESULT = 0“

We have increased. now is used only 44% of capacity..
