Re: How to access a Virtual Machine's Event Tab contents

Hi Musatafa,

Thanks for the response. As mentioned in my original post I've already checked hostd but I couldn't find any related info.

For example in the Events Tab for a VM I have:

Virtual machine disks consolidation succeeded.

info

4/08/2013 12:19:00 AM

<VM_NAME>

vpxuser

But when i grep hostd.log for consolidation using cat /var/log/hostd.log |grep -i consolidation I won't get any related info:

More info:

I have connected to the host directly both from putty and vsphere client.
