For stopping the error
messages logged into the
log file, use one of the
following workarounds:
• Ensure a media is always
present in the SATA
CD/DVD drive. This
workaround avoids
exception messages being
sent to the log files.
• Reduce the level of event
logging by adding strings
in
/etc/vmware/logfilters .
