Virtual Storage Manager disk usage

Hello, 

 Are you running an older version of VSM?   There was a problem with log rotation and old logs weren't getting rotated and compressed. 

Also if you look at in-use space on VMFS Datastore side, then deletes won't be unmapped.  My VSM uses about 18GB and I monitor a number of groups with it. 

 What version are you using?   

  Regards, 

Don

hello, 

 Did you upgrade to this version of do a new install?    FYI:  There is a newer version v5.0.1. that fixes a bug with certain builds of vCenter when creating new VMFS Datastores 

 If you did the upgrade path, they could be old logs, so you might want to deploy a new VSM at v5.0.1 and start clean.

Hello,

This was indeed an upgrade.

I will try to start clean and let you know.

Regards.

Hello, 

 Thanks.  If you still have a support contact they can help you clean up the old logs and see if it comes back. If your configuration isn't too complicated it might be easier to just install v5.0.1 from scratch.
