Hi,
i am having trouble with with core dump. I set a partition using article Configuring a diagnostic coredump partition on an ESXi 5.x/6.x host (2004299) | VMware KB .
esxcli system coredump partition set --partition=NvmeDevice:9
esxcli system coredump partition set --enable true
esxcli system coredump partition set --enable true --smart
esxcli system coredump partition list
Name Path Active Configured
-------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ ----------
NvmeDevice:9 /vmfs/devices/disks/NvmeDevice:9 true true
but when i initiate psod using: vsish -e set reliability/crashMe/Panic 1 I am getting "Coredump to disk. Slot 1 of 1 on device NvmeDevice:9 DiskDump: Failed: Timeout"
After reboot when i try to retrive it esxcfg-dumppart --copy --devname /vmfs/devices/disks/NvmeDevice:9 i got:
"Error running command. Unable to copy the dump partition: Couldn't find a valid VMKernel dump file. Dump partition might be uninitialized."
I have no idea why this is not working, any one can help?
