DF277439 Persistence of Configuration and
Log File Changes in VMware ESXi
Persistence of Configuration and Log File
Changes in VMware ESXi on systems running
VMware ESXi, the file system is ramdisk.
Modifications made to the files within the
file system are generally not persistent after
a reboot, with the exception of designated
configuration and log files.
These files are updated to the disk periodically
and on system shutdown. If the system is reset
without a graceful shutdown before the update
to the designated configuration are made and
before log files are updated to the disk, the
changes are lost.

DF354388 Remote OMSA Web Server
connection
Remote Server Administrator Web Server
connection to a managed node stops
responding, if a redundant virtual disk containing
syslog dumps fails.
If you configure the syslog to store logs in to a
remote virtual disk (VD), and remove the remote
VD without reconfiguring the syslog to a valid
location, the Server Administrator web server
screen stops responding.
To continue using the
Server Administrator web
server, restart the
management services on
the managed node.
