logRegexp specifies a case-sensitive phrase with Python regular expression syntax to filter the
log messages by their content.
For example, to set a limit of maximum two-log entries from the hostd component for messages that
resemble the SOCKET connect failed, error 2: No such file or directory phrase with any
error number, add the following entry:
2 | hostd | SOCKET connect failed, error .*: No such file or directory
Note A line starting with # denotes a comment and the rest of the line is ignored.
3 In the /etc/vmsyslog.conf file, add the following entry to enable the log filtering capability.
enable_logfilters = true
4 Run the esxcli system syslog reload command to reload the syslog daemon and apply the
configuration changes.
Set the Host Image Profile Acceptance Level
The Host Image Profile acceptance level determines which vSphere installation bundles (VIBs) are
accepted for installation.
VIB signatures are checked and accepted for installation based on a combination of the VIB acceptance
level and the host image profile acceptance level. VIBs are tagged with an acceptance level that depends
on their signature status.
See Acceptance Levels.
