Our Hosts are getting an event storm from our vMA server causing some abnormal table growth in our vCenter server DB.
We identified the likely root cause as log collection setup on the vMA. Rather than find the issue and fix it, I'd like to just disable logging altogether. It isn't being used and it's going to change with vMA 5 anyway.
I didn't set this up so, I'm looking for instructions for disabling it completely. This is what I planned on doing:
- Identify Host connected to vMA: vifp listservers
- Disable vilogger on each Host: vilogger enable --server [ESX/ESXi IP or HOSTNAME]
- Is this the correct process and all I would need to do? I wasn't sure if there was anything I could/should disable on the vMA server as well.
- I also want to verify disabling vilogger on the Hosts only affects vMA collection and will not affect the Host in any other way.
