I have a vCenter 5.5 appliance that isn't working correctly. It stopped allowing logins from vSphere Clients (both Web and installed). I investigated and found that the root (/ sda3) partition was full. I found 2 log files eating up the space on the disk in the /var/log directory. The first and biggest was the ldapmessages log file and the second was a cron log file. I deleted both of them to free up space (now only 40% usage). I rebooted the vCenter appliance and the vpxd fails to initialize. I checked the vpxd.log file and saw LDAP errors. I followed the VMware KB article 2044680 to rebuild the LDAP database but the errors persisted and vpxd still wont start. I attached the vpxd.log file to the post and any help to get this resolved would be greatly appreciated.
