- In vSphere Client, select the host in the inventory panel.
- Click the Configuration tab, then click Advanced Settings under Software.
- Ensure that Syslog.global.logDir points to a persistent location.
- The directory should be specified as [datastorename] path_to_file where the path is relative to the datastore. For example, [datastore1] /systemlogs.
- If the Syslog.global.logDir field is empty or explicitly points to a scratch partition, make sure that the field ScratchConfig.CurrentScratchLocation shows a location on persistent storage.
Virtualization is a technology that creates virtual versions of computer hardware such as servers, storage, and networks. This allows multiple operating systems to run on one physical machine, increasing flexibility and resource utilization. It's widely used in data centers and cloud computing to increase efficiency and scalability. Types include server, storage, and network virtualization. Server virtualization creates virtual versions of physical servers known as VMs which can run their own OS
