How to free space due to disk being full from hprof files.
VMware Cloud Director 10.x
Java process can crash and create a memory dump as the hprof file.
The files to delete will be in the following form:
/opt/vmware/vcloud-director/logs/java_pid****.hprof
Log in as the root user and use the following command to locate the hprof files:
find / -iname *.hprof
There are also cases where we find these hprof files included in the support bundles - vmware-vcd-support-###.tgz. If the support bundles are no longer needed, it is recommended to delete them.
You may safely delete .hprof files with no impact to VCD.
If you are working on a support ticket with VMware by Broadcom to troubleshoot crashing java processes, support may request your most recent .hprof files, in which case you may want to back up existing .hprof files, or only delete older .hprof files.
