My ESXi host is flooded with these messages

[Uncle3]

Would anyone be able to tell me how I can make this go away please?

I suggest you to raise support request with VMware

What is the version of the ESXI host.

Please attached the vmkernel logs  to analyze the issue.

Hi Guys, same problem here.

I have this version 5.5.0 build-1623387 and the problem has arisen after update from 5.5.0 build-1474528.

I'm embarrass to say it but I'm running 4.1.  After much searching around, I found out where these message came from.  The IP of the targeted server was entered into the ESXi syslog configuration.  So that is why that particular VM was receiving these messages.  But still, I don't know why the ESXi host is spilling all these messages.  These messages appears to be in "verbose" mode.  But I can't find anything in the configuration that I can tune down the logging level.
