Is it OK to delete VM log files?

We had an issue with an ESX host and every VM that was registered on the host now has 5K vmware-*.log files. Is it OK to delete all of the these files? Thanks.

Yes, and considering you are going to delete them simply turn them off.

Edit settings -> options -> General (uncheck vmware logs).

They are ok to delete, but nice to have incase you need to talk to vmware support. Are your esx host partitions filling up?
