Dear all,
We have a couple of Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits guests installed on vSphere 5.0 on two separate physical machines (HP DL380 G5).
All servers are running OK, except two specific servers, one on each separate physical machine are growing due toe extreme number of log entries in vmware.log with the below entry repeated every couple of milliseconds.

We have now limited the log size and number of logs to keep although I would like to know what the issue is.
Both machines run the same Reverse proxy service, that's what makes them the same.
Each machine was installed separately, no restore or copy that could explain why both share the same behaviour.
I hope any of you can point me in a direction as I have been searching the web without any results for two days now.
Kind Regards,
Arthur Steijlen
