Steps:
1. Take VCSA Snapshot
2. To find where the disk space is being used, you can start by simply using the df -h command to verify which partition is having an issue. the /storage/log partition is the one having issues.
3. Start looking at where the storage space is being used specifically in the /storage/log partition, use this command du -a /storage/log | sort -n -r | head -n 20
Below is the list of paths you can housekeep some log files
- /storage/log/vmware/eam/web
- /storage/log/vmware/lookupsvc
- /storage/log/vmware/lookupsvc/tomcat
4. Use this command ls -al to list or see the files can be deleted. As per screen capture, we see log files can be deleted.
5. To do the housekeeping I use WINSCP > Login using root you can backup the logs before deleting it or if not necessary delete it straightway you have snapshot anyway
6. Run df -h to check the percentage use of /storage/log path (Make sure it decrease to 80% below)
7. Login to vCenter Server Manager and vCenter – Make sure you can login and vCenter is all Good/Green.
