Again: The ramdisk 'root' is full. As a result, the file /var/run/vmware/tickets/vmtck could not be written.

Hi,

i'm on 5.0 ESXI Build 1024429.

I already defined a new scratch location on a local disk:

/var/log # cat /etc/vmware/locker.conf

/vmfs/volumes/4f360e13-e321f854-e5d5-5404a6a6930b/.locker-ESX

The Scratchconfig.currentscratchlocation is set to the above directory.

I have already searched around, but did not find any other helpful tips.

Uptime = 43 days

What could be wrong?

THANKS!

I have enough space on the disks:

/vmfs/volumes # ls -la
