To resolve this issue, you should reboot the ESXi host. Ensure there are no Storage or Datastore problems on the host.
Alternatively, you can create a cronjob.
Note: The cronjob does not persist across host reboots.
For example:
/var/spool/cron/crontabs
# cat root
#min hour day mon dow command
1 1 * * * /sbin/tmpwatch.py
1 * * * * /sbin/auto-backup.sh
0 * * * * /usr/lib/vmware/vmksummary/log-heartbeat.py
15 * * * * echo `date` there are `ls /tmp/current.png* | wc -l` files. deleting all current.png files `rm /tmp/current.png*` >> /tmp/delete.log
