High CPU usage (mostly 100%) on Virtual Centre 2.5 server

Hi Guys,

My Virtual Centre 2.5 server is showing 100% CPU usage most of the time, it's the vpxd.exe process which is the culprit.

Any idea on how to get this back under control?

Thanks

Radek

Hi,

It's only 3 ESX servers in a test environment. Virtual Centre server is a physical box.

Thanks

Hi Ramonrod,

Yeah I say that article, this is a fresh install and not an upgrade, so this doesn't really apply, though I did try following the article and it didn't help.

I'm going to nuke the VC VM and start again....
