Can some one answer.
Hello Gayathri,
Can you run the command vdf -h and check the /tmp and ramdisk space on the ESXi host
As per the ESXi build, this should be resolved as per this KB as per the build you are already on ESXi 5.1 update 2
You can try to increase some more (as advised to 60MB) memory resources by following the steps in the above kb
To increase the maximum memory limit of the logging resource group:
Thanks,
MS
