Log VM's

[marcelofs]

Oi galera,

Gostaria de saber onde posso pegar um log mais detalhado das minhas VM's atráves de linha de comando ou do vsphere Cliente ou se existe algum plug-in que faça isso?

Obrigado galera!

Hi guys,

I wonder where I can get a more detailed log of my VM's via the command line or the vSphere Client or if there is a plugin that does this?

Thank you guys!

we can see the detailed logs related to a VM in vmware.log.

To see the vmware.log we have to login to the host through SSH or ESXi shell.

the following KB will help you in getting the access to the host.

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=101791...

once you connected to the host, you can see the logs at /vmfs/<datastore>/<vm folder>/

From command line,

Does cat /vmfs/volumes/<VMdatastore>/VM/vmware.log provide you your required logging?

From vSphere:

Click on File-Export system logs-Uncheck all-check virtual machines-logs provide you your required logs?
