Unable to review Linux guest operating system sosreport

Products

• VMware vCenter Server

Issue/Introduction

When troubleshooting a Linux system, you may be working with a sosreport (now formally known as sos report). A sosreport is a standardized command-line diagnostic tool for Linux systems that collects configuration details, system logs, and state information into a compressed archive.

Environment

Linux Guest Operating Systems

Cause

Support is unable to review this report as it contains information specifically from within the guest operating system, which falls outside the standard scope of support.

Resolution

This is expected behavior.

To review the diagnostic report and troubleshoot the operating system further, please reach out directly to your guest operating system vendor for support.
