Hello,
I'm in the process of upgrading 5 vSphere 6.5 U1 hosts to vSphere 6.7. 4 of them went well, the 5th shows a problem.
After a failed upgrade it shows: 'Cannot execute upgrade script on host.'
So I started putty and 1 store was 100% in use. Each time it's the locker store. I found articles to clean up the store. I did, even back 99% free, but till now still no luck.
I noticed some strange behavior of this store: when running 'ls -l' a nice listing shows.
[root@MY-ESX03:/vmfs/volumes/584ec949-400c0a6f-ed9d-001f295dea86] ls -la
total 2048

[root@MY-ESX03:/vmfs/volumes/584ec949-400c0a6f-ed9d-001f295dea86]
But when I use 'ls -R'
[root@MY-ESX03:/vmfs/volumes/584ec949-400c0a6f-ed9d-001f295dea86] ls -R

I have to use CTRL-C to stop it....
On every other host this runs nicely and stops all by itself.
Anyone seen this behavior?
And if so: do you have a solution?
Kind regards,
René
You might have done it already but, have you restarted the management agents on the host after freeing up the concerned partition?
Cheers,
Supreet
Thank you for your suggestion.
I've even restarted the host directly afterwards, but no luck.
Regards,
René
