What is the log format utilized by vCenter Server in the vpxd.log file?
Is it
Or is it a proprietary format?
Ah, I misread this -- many different formats are used in vSphere events. The vpxd.log is like RFC3164 with some hints of RFC5424, but does not strictly follow either. It does not follow EVTX to my knowledge.
All of the above + RFC 3164 + ??? -- it is proprietary.
OK - So you mean to say that vpxd.log aggregates messages of Windows XML event log format (EVTX) and syslog and stores them in its own propretary format?
