ESXi: VM being restarted
Hi,
I am using ESXi 6.0
I see a warning "vSphere HA failover operation in progress in cluster XXX in datacenter DC YYY: 1 VMs being restarted, 0 VMs waiting for a
retry, 0 VMs waiting for resources, 0 inaccessible Virtual SAN VMs". Apparantly, all VMs are up&runnig (according to our monitoring), so I assume this is cosmetic.
Anyway, how can I identify which VM is restarting?
Thank you

according to Andrew, validate the events in the VM first.
You can also reconfigure HA availability on the host where the VM is hosted.

Hi Rafa, as I wrote, I don't know which VM it is.

Hi Andrew,
I checked old logs from "that" day (april 4), I see lots of "completed" task. There are few task which are not, eg.
VMware vSphere Update Manager has restarted. The task was scheduled to run when Update Manager was not available and will run on the next schedule
or this:
Unable to generate userworld swap file in directory '/vmfs/volumes/5b61676a-c7 20b180-486 d-d4ae52bc 6b95/serve r' for 'server'
or this:
An error was received from the ESX host while powering on VM out.
Anyway, all VMs are up&running now.
I don't know what I need to investigate.
In case, is reconfigure HA a safe option?

Hi Andrew, I disabled / enabled again HA on my cluster, the error is gone.
