I recently migrated to Virtual Distributed Switches. Ever since then, the 'Recent Tasks' section in the vSphere Client on vCenter displays the following message:
Look up portgroup based on portgroup key - target name X
This message is displayed every few seconds and is causing very high CPU utilization on the vCenter Server Appliance (6.7.0.42000). I searched around and was unable to find anything that would tell me the reason this is happening.
The value for the target name varies depending on the portgroup in question.
- Does anyone know what is causing this event?
- Is this a normal function?
- Did I misconfigure something in vDS?
- If it's a normal function, is this incredibly high-frequency of occurrences expected behavior?
- How can I mitigate/eliminate this to alleviate the overhead imposed on VCSA?
I only have 2 ESXi servers in the environment:
One server running 6.7.0 - 13981272
One server running 6.5.0 - 13932383
Thanks in advance!
