We're seeing around 500 hosts (26% of our estate) with DMP files in %programdata%\VMware\VDM\Dumps. On the hosts the logs range from just a couple to 71GBs worth.
We're on:
Horizon 7.11
Client 7.11
Tools 11.0.5
All the DMP files are named as our SysTrack service user. Which leads me to believe the account is trying to access a VMware process or something.
My question is: Does anyone know of any tools to view these DMP files?
I have tried Winternals Dbgview.exe and Cmtrace.exe - but they cant view them. There doesnt seem to be much information about these files on the Internet.
Any help would be appreciated.
What is the name of these dump files?
Do you have systrack desktop agent running on VDIs?
The files are all called "LsiUser-###.dmp" (where # are what appears to be random numbers).
Yes we do have the SysTrack agent running on our VMs.
Not sure if systrack agent is creating these dump files. Did you test without systrack agent on VDIs? Prefer to submit a support ticket to further investigate.
No SysTrack wont be creating these - they are created by Horizon.
SysTrack monitors and records activities on the host and stores the information in a local Jet database. Then it is automatically uploaded to the main SysTrack database at specific intervals.
The SysTrack server does interact with the hosts, so I think this is when these dumps are created.
I'll raise a ticket with VMware.
Thank you for your help!
