Increased event log activity after upgrade to 7.0U2b

[akingston]

Hello,

We are planning on addressing the latest security advisory (CVE-2021-21985, CVE-2021-21986). As a result, we have upgraded a test environment to ensure its functionality. After upgrading the Vcenter, we have noticed more events logs than usual at the vcenter level.

The following are an example of some of the events we are encountering:

Trusted Host attestation status unset.

vCenter ESXi Dump Collector File System Resource status changed from Yellow to Green on vcenter
vCenter Boot File System status changed from Yellow to Green on vcenter.

 We would like to roll out the security patch as soon as possible. However, this behavior is cause for concern. Is this behavior normal?

Thank you

@akingston Alert "Trusted Host attestation status unset" can be ignored, please refer KB https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/83471

Checking other two errors, will update you shortly, might be specific to test environment.

I upgraded another Environment and similar events are popping up:

@akingston  Any news on this topic?

I have the same issue after updating from VC-7.0U2b to VC-7.0U2c

After about 3 days the event messages are gone. Strange thing, I didn't change anything during that time.
