VM activity event log | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content
Hi,



Is there any way that we can monitor a particular VM activity - log file from Nutanix perspective. we keep on getting VM to be rebooted.



VM OS: Windows Server 2008

Hypervisor: AHV
If is this for commercial Nutanix, please make a support case and we will help you investigate. VMs rebooting is definitely not normal, so let's get support engagedIf this if for CE/community edition, let me know and I'llMove this to the CE forums
Hi Jon,



It is for commercial Nutanix. No worrries, we've got the assistance from Nutanix Support. However, it is a bit hard for us to go through the log files to find the root cause of the issue. How I wish we can have a simpler way to look into the VM activities via Prism.



Cheers.
I think there are two sides to this situation from what I see



1 - When "system" level issues go wrong, where do you go?

2 - When "users" do things like reboot a VM, where does that task get tracked?



Both of those go to acropolis.log and acropolis.out on the CVM, ~/data/logs on each respective CVM, with some of the "system" things showing up in other logs, like stargate etc



We're making some improvements to #2, so you should see those showing up in the next few releases to prism.
Hi Jon,



Noted on the info. Looking forward for the new releases.



Thanks for the assistance. Support did a very good job.
