Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 2:11.0.5-1
When using the LSI Logic Parallel SCSI controller lots of log messages are
generated. These are benign but may fill up logs quickly. We are working on
fixing the root cause.
This was first reported at SuSE, see
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1162435 and also on github:
https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/issues/404 . We have a patch that
degrades the warning messages to debug messages in
https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/commits/stable-11.0.5-suse-bug-1162435 .
Thanks,
Oliver

Changes:
open-vm-tools (2:11.0.5-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* [eab2f1a] Add vmtoolsd.service alias.
Debian's open-vm-tools.service is rather unsuaul and based on the
history of the package, so ship an alias.
* [b2977cd] Rectify a log spew in vmsvc logging.
Upstream commit 4ee0bd3c8ead89541ab7d196fb54e940e397420d
When a LSI Logic Parallel SCSI controller sits in PCI bus 0
(SCSI controller 0), the Linux disk device enumeration does not provide
a "label" file with the controller name. This results in messages like
"GuestInfoGetDiskDevice: Missing disk device name; VMDK mapping
unavailable for "/var/log", fsName: "/dev/sda2" repeatedly appearing
in the vmsvc logging. The patch converts what previously was a warning
message to a debug message and thus avoids the log spew.
Thanks to Oliver Kurth (Closes: #950888)
